A New Day Dawns

A reflection and celebration of the official gathering of the AAPI Community of Practice.

Two persons care,
Four persons dare,
And ten will come along.
A million strong on a simple song,
soon the whole world sings along,
and a new day dawns.

Out there on your own,
know that you are not alone.
Look around and see
Signs of solidarity. 

 

The Kanji or / and Chinese character (four strokes at the top) is reflective of the meanings of two by two journeying together. The Haiku poem is a form of Japanese poetry. This poem is adapted from the work of Sr. MT Winter.
