What If

We gathered
The way we did as children
Knowing that love and protection
Was always there

What if we gathered
In Love and abandonment
Remembering that dreams of the future
Were ours to dream

In Love and abandonment
We gather as children
Look to future friendships
Joy
Watched over by Trees
In the Meadow

What if we gathered
At a Place of learning
Of the Heart
Of the Mind

At a Place of Freedom
We give all that we are
Because this is the place
Of Safety

What if this place
Existed as our School?
