Coming Together

I wrote this poem in 1986 when I was living in Israel while serving at the Baha’i World Centre. I was there volunteering for a 30-month period. During this time, I had the bounty of setting foot on some of the most holy places in the world. Memories that will serve me for my life and beyond.

 

Coming Together

Somewhere, … over the rainbow

Is where I’m meant to be,

Somewhere, … my love will find thee.

Our love will grow,

And we will show,

The whole world, we’re meant to be together.

For a wish like this,

is an awesome wish,

A wish that is meant till the end and beyond.

For our love will grow,

as our needs will show,

To be as one together.

So much has happened,

to each of us, to know,

that we can only grow, together.

Oh my Lord,

If we could only know,

We would be, Together.
