Just for today, I ask
that no one stumbles, no one falls
that no one succumbs to anger
that no one allows themselves
to feel grief and despair.

Just for today
I ask for 24 hours of peace and harmony
so that all of us can feel what it's like
so all of us can believe it's possible.
If only for a short time, or possibly, forever.

Just for today let all the hungry be fed.
Let the soldiers set their guns down
let the families who are lost, be found.
Let everyone see  what love can do.
For just one day.

At a time.
