I'm not much of a poetry kind of guy but this one got my attention and kept it.
Giving by Carol Lynn Pearson
I love giving blood.
Sometimes I walk in
Off the Street
When no one has even asked
And roll up my sleeve
I love lying on the table
Watching my blood flow
Through the scarlet tube
To fill the little bag
That bears no Address
I love the mystery
Of its destination.
It runs as easily
To child or woman or man
Black or white
Californian or Asian
Methodist , Mormon
Muslim or Jew.
Rain does too.
Rivers do.
I think God does.
We Do Not.
Our suspicious egos clot
On the journey from "Us" to "Them"
So I give blood
To practice Flowing
Never knowing
where it's Going
And Glad.
