Forte Blessing (a poem for Emil)

now we shall rise and bless him

with our being being here not elsewhere

means there’s love among us tidings

and good gestures family friends

the earth is round and he shall roam it

Emil Siddhartha namesake of the earth

he touched the ground not elsewhere

are our blessings in this sun that wine

a clearing space to circle time its ours

and his sons and daughters share this day

we are here there’s love among us
