Gestures of Goodwill

We've all seen the footage, ( the actual) in documentaries, the news and watched the depictions in war movies, POWS marching Jews headed to the camps endless lines of refugees... And then comes a gesture of charity, kindness like a symbol of goodwill... Someone, some plain peasant angel tosses an apple hands a piece of bread ( rye, perhaps) and the apple is caught, the bread grabbed with dirty, skeletal hands then devoured, hidden, saved- too meager to sustain but cherished emblems of hope, of humanity still... Was it something like that for me? Lost, when an angelic Muse ( The Holy Spirit?) handed me this peculiar gift- poetry... miraculous how it's sustained me for 36 years. Like the seeds of a single apple produce an orchard, like Jesus feeding multitudes with multiplied loaves... And what of bread and apples? Poetry and seeds? Are they all gestures of hope symbols of kindness, goodwill emblems of- humanity's power of angels among us- still?
