How strangely incurious the European migrants are. None have ever enquired as to the fate that befell the indigenous populations of the Americas. One is left to assume that these millions of people simply left of their own accord.

So the wind came, its cold Easterly claw, as I knew it would. And the cherry blossom became snow, drifting high on the uncut grass. ©️April 2025

For TopTweetTuesday and host clare e. potter, here's my poem on the theme of #Reflection. Thanks for reading!

Our themes for next week’s TopTweetTuesday ~ Protest, democracy, social justice, human rights, safety ~ 100 words max. Inventive use of imagery & metaphor first & foremost. ☝️

We live in an inter-connected society despite the claims of Starmer yesterday & Thatcher years ago. Below an example of myself & my neighbours & friends from 2021 in Kenmure Street, Glasgow, not being "an island of strangers."

Over a century ago, Pope Leo XIII noted that "the preservation of the Eastern rites is more important than is realized." Let us embrace the appeal to safeguard and promote the Christian East, especially in the diaspora. vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

The ancient, yet ever new spiritualities of the Christian East offer a healing balm. They merge an awareness of human misery with awe for divine mercy, so that our lowliness never leads to despair but invites us to welcome grace.

There is so much violence and so many wars in our world! Amid this horror that should provoke outrage—as people die in the name of military conquest—stands the call of Christ, who repeats: ‘Peace be with you!’

Christ's peace is not the silence of the tomb after a conflict, and it is not the result of subjugation. Peace is a gift that gazes at others and renews their lives. Let us pray for this peace, which is reconciliation, forgiveness, and courage to turn the page and start again.

The Holy See is willing to help enemies meet, so they may look each other in the eye and so people may be given back the dignity they deserve: the dignity of peace. With heart in hand, I say to the leaders of nations: let us meet; let us dialogue; let us negotiate!

War is never inevitable. Weapons can and must fall silent, for they never solve problems but only intensify them. Those who sow peace will endure throughout history, not those who reap victims. Others are not enemies to hate but human beings with whom to speak.

There he is now! Welcome to Twitter, big guy!
