Would you invite the whirlwind
To dwell within your home?
Garner hugs from a bear
Play peek-a-boo with a cobra?
Could you heal the plague
With aspirin and cold water?
Cure a broken bone
With scotch tape or glue?
How can love alone heal
The broken heart and mind?
Can a soul be repaired
With only warm emotion?
Why do we treat the body
As if the soul were separate?
How can we heal either
If we ignore the connection?
