We gather, in
groups large and small,
to share a few
hours, a few dollars
to walk, as they
must, for food, for water
for solidarity
with our brothers, our sisters
around the world,
who need to walk
for the basic essentials
of life
Out of our
abundance, emulating them,
walking as they
do, to understand
to lift them up,
to provide for their needs
to be, for a
moment, a few minutes,
our neighbor’s
keeper, giving of ourselves
walking because
they do
