Enough Would words be enough, I would sate your hunger I would build for you a well everfilled with water clean I would work alongside as you till the field Watch hope emerge green from the brown earth Would words be enough, I would end your misery Watch each child of yours grow strong and true Teach you to read and to write and to sing So that your voice be forgotten nevermore Would words be enough, I would help you bear your burden Bring healing to your wounds, end strife See beyond the lines on a map, beyond colour And you would know you are my sister, my brother If words were enough Click on the file below to listen to Josephine read her poem: 
 a pearl in this diamond world … Josephine LoRe’s words have been read on stage and in Zoom rooms, put to music, danced, integrated into paintings & visual art, and published in literary journals and anthologies in ten countries. She has two collections, Unity and the Calgary Herald Bestseller The Cowichan Series.
