Bridges

by June Sargent

3 Words In A Poem Contest Winner 
Hate sets a heart on fire.
As it escalates higher
people riot in fear.
Fabric of life will tear
if walls we build divide
and children have to hide.
Bridges are what we need
uniting different creeds.
Let's all extend our hands -
one by one, man to man.
Hatred paralyzes.
Kindness stabilizes.
