Regeneration

We begin

Where the roots are dry

Where separation has left its mark

On our bodies

Our relationships

Our world

We begin

Not with grand gestures 

But with small actions

That stack like stones

Each one a piece toward wholeness

To live what we value

To do what is necessary

Even when it costs us comfort 

The path forward 

Is made by those who gather 

To hold a vision of the future together 

Not made by force

But by a thousand steady steps 

We walk with steadfast commitment 

To repair the world

To build a future 

We choose
