What if we cared for everyone in pain, everyone suffering, the way we would care for our own child?
Words by Winter: Conversations, reflections, and poems about the passages of life. Because it’s rough out there, and we have to help each other through.
Original theme music for our show is by Dylan Perese. Additional music by Kelly Krebs. Artwork by Mark Garry. Today’s poem, Words Whispered to a Child Under Siege, by Joseph Fasano, is featured here with kind permission of the poet.
