Unions Are a Gift of Our Own Giving

September 2, 2019

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is work in honor of Labor Day, which is celebrated today, September 2.

I welcome comments on my poems at http://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A poem about the value of unions:

Unions are a gift of our own giving,

Nor can we stand without a common spine.

Immense together, miniscule alone;

Organized, a mountain; else a stone;

Needing us to get what's yours and mine:

So must all join that each might make a living.
