"Don't pretend that earth is not one family. 
Don't pretend we never hung from the same branch. 
Don't pretend we do not ripen on each other's breath. 
Don't pretend we didn't come here to forgive..." 

You can find this poem in my book, "The Nectar Of This Breath," 
at my Amazon Author Page (LINK), and other booksellers.
