And...

And in this word is forward.
And in this word is trust.
And in this word inclusion.
And in this word is us.

And in this word lies healing.
And in this word is care.
And in this word is mentor.
And in this word some dare.

And in this word is teacher.
And in this word is truth.
And in this word is father.
And in this word wait youth.

And in this word no limits.
And in this word move on.
And in this word more hope springs.
And in this word new dawn.
