Thinking of Palestine.. Shoulders A man crosses the street - TopicsExpress



          

Thinking of Palestine.. Shoulders A man crosses the street in rain, stepping gently, looking two times north and south, because his son is asleep on his shoulder. No car must splash him. No car drive too near to his shadow. This man carries the worlds most sensitive cargo but hes not marked. Nowhere does his jacket say FRAGILE, HANDLE WITH CARE. His ear fills up with breathing. He hears the hum of a boys dream deep inside him. Were not going to be able to live in this world if were not willing to do what hes doing with one another. The road will only be wide. The rain will never stop falling. --Naomi Shihab Nye
