there were lots of tears
there were groups of people
rappng about recent years
there was openness and honesty
and only then could we see how
wrong we were when we arrived
our new made friends
had come from other worlds
different and yet the same
we all took the blame
and we hadn't known
each other's names

at night some slept on cots
while others stayed awake
to watch the rising sun
we asked God's forgiveness
for the things we had done

we sang and we danced
we talked to the moon
we drank got chocolate
ate the marshmellows
with a spoon

we were together
witnessing the srength
in unity and there were
tears in our eyes
when it came time to leave

My sons and I went to church retreats like this. It was wonderful. The diversity so was interesting. I am glad you experienced this. They are marvelous.

Rainbows,
