Love All Creatures The Sequel Poem by Jim Yerman

Yesterday's blessing came from Charles Darwin
who, you may remember, expressed it far better than I can….
when he said:
The love of all living creatures
is the most noble attribute of man….

And I spoke for Mr. Darwin
when I said knew through evolution he would be remiss
If he didn't add women and LGBTQIA+ people to that list.

I didn't add this to yesterday's blessing
because I didn't think I needed to…
but I fear some people have forgotten…
how we are creatures too.
