Musings on Life, Love, and Linguine-Poetry & Writing
“Because you have been blessed with the gift of life, it is your duty to help others. We are all responsible for one another.” ― Kamand Kojouri
What lies before us can be found
in the sins of our tainted past.
Our fate in hard stone has been cast
with mistakes and failures profound;
Leaving us confused and spellbound.
And yet there is hope high above
soaring on white wings of a dove
look within our true hearts and see
seek the goodness and set it free
revolution begins with love
