    The first poem argues that with so many religions and beliefs in the world, the most important thing is being kind to others. The second poem says that the past is over and gone, while today is a mystery that flutters away even as we think about it. The third poem is about slowly experiencing and savoring beauty and intimacy like a bee with a flower's nectar, until it is lost in the balms or fragrances.

    THE WORLDS NEED

    By Ella Wheeler Wilcox


    O many gods, so many creeds, So many paths that wind and wind, While just the art of being kind Is all the sad world needs.

    YESTERDAY IS HISTORY
    By Emily Dickinson
    Yesterday is History, 'Tis so far away Yesterday is Poetry 'Tis Philosophy Yesterday is mystery Where it is Today While we shrewdly speculate Flutter both away

    COME SLOWLY
    By Emily Dickinson
    Come slowly, Eden Lips unused to thee. Bashful, sip thy jasmines, As the fainting bee, Reaching late his flower, Round her chamber hums, Counts his nectars -alights, And is lost in balms!
