Why We Must Love

We must love each other

because we share the earth’s water,

we share the vegetation of the earth.

Under the same sun and moon,

we all wrinkle and grow old.

And we should love each other

because we all cry while throwing time’s stones

into the rivers of the earth

We tumble in the wind

without knowing one another.

Like falling leaves or scuttling beetles,

we are all separated and dispersed.
