We were not there, br But we really hope our impression can be fair... br We simply got a view br From a read on 'The Rainbow Gathering'. br Now we'd like to share br How they joined that community br For some days of cooperative living. br br They all came from different states, br Made their way across thousands of miles, br Joining people of all ages and styles, br Just wanting to celebrate The Independence Day - br Focusing on mutual learning, br Cooperating in a friendly way. br br Volunteers moved to and fro... br After cooking their tasty food br They served it, and everyone whooped: 'OH! ' br br It was a huge human circle of thousands, br Devoted people feeling the power of meditation, br Then thanking God for their (multi) national commemoration! br br The event was coming to its end... br They cared for the state of the land, br Clearing it of all litter. br The bare earth they decided to re-seed br To guarantee a better life to every KID!br br Maria C.
