JUST
-Jan Harris

Just
one child
with a dream
that her house rose
from the ash, that her
mother remembered how to
smile and her father's arms
grew back long enough to hold her,
just one day with enough food,
with breath to run and climb
without fear. Just one
child with a dream
of peace in
one just
world.
