I passed this sign, saw the gull,
And had to stop: if there were something deeper
To strive for than the peace we long to see,
It would be this: renewed awareness
Of the links that lie beneath the squabbles;
The bond of humanness that connects us all;
The fact that beneath the skin
We are all brothers, and are born
To care for one another and protect
Not just ourselves but that connection.
