Strength to Each Other

In times of crises our eyes search through our masks,

for safety, for strength

with our hearts longing to feel the surge

of our common humanity 

to no longer feel alone,

so we write,

we draw

and paint,

and photograph,

to encourage ourselves

and to give strength

to each other.

Because that’s who we are,

it’s what makes us

human.
