The role of beauty


Why pursue art and beauty,
When all around us cities burn,
Injustice reigns, and death tallies are rising?
Perhaps because so many souls are wounded
And desperate for reminders
That there’s still hope and light
Blooming somewhere in the world...
Death comes to the garden, too,
But still the flowers lift their faces to the sun.
