Huh, my vote is late...But I like poem no. 1
Thanks Lucas... True happiness is a state of mind.
Happiness is not a consequence of things that happen. 
Do not pursue happiness - practice it. 
Sing, even if you do not sound good. 
Smile, even when things go wrong. 
Create happiness, and happy you will be.

Poem #1

Open space is a quick brown foxjumping over thatlazy dog Control.


Poem #2
I feel deeply touched 
About everything that is happening My deepest feelings goes to the family of the deceased
Principles like love, peace, respect…are they lost?Always seemed right to love and respect every soul , every living being!Rises my inner voice against all kind of hate and evilIs this the world we want to build?Say no to hate, say no to fear, say yes to love, and please respect all kinds of being!


Poem #3

Someone may say, ‘What can one person do?, when others are so evil?’One person can step forward.Just as in Open Space.Speaking to passion and responsibility.We’ve seen it happen.
In Open Space, we have learned to notice the differences.The one person.The diversity.
One person can step forward.Name a topic.Submit a poem.Hold a session with just themselves attending it.
In Open Space, we welcome that.We invite it.Even one person stepping forwardstepping into their passion and responsibilitycan shift an organization. A community. A way of thinking.
Someone said, 'Only one person on this list submitted a poem.'
One person.Stepping forward.Speaking to passion and responsibility.
What can one person do?Step forward into the silence.Breathe.Open up her arms.Invite difference.Embody the simple fact thateach person matters.
One person can do the most loving thing it is in her heart to do.
