More deeply

Someone meditated, someone prayed

Someone met their shadow

And people begin to think differently

And people healed

And in the absence of people who lived in ignorant ways

Dangerous, meaningless and heartless

The Earth also began to heal

And when the danger ended

People found themselves

They grieved for the dead and made new choices

And dreamed of new visions

And created new ways of living

And completely healed the Earth

Just as they were healed

I believe your poetic prose (treatise?) should be titled: A Stitch In Time.
