Peace And Caring

Peace And Caring

A Poem by Eric Cox

People kill and people die
many tears fall from the sky
humankind does so much wrong
why can't we all get along
why can't we care for each other
because of desire for power
because of cruel prejudice inside
because of blind anger we should hide
because of greed and lack of respect
the Ten Commandments many reject
So life here goes on with no true peace
not caring about others must cease
stand up for what's right and don't back down
don't let the unjust wear power crowns
someday help will come from God above
fed up with darkness God will bring love
God will break through what is keeping God back
the world will find peace and hope shall not lack.

I don't know. I don't blame God for this planet. Man's free will and greed had screw everything up. I believe God and the Angels are disappointed in man greed and hate holding the world hostage. A powerful poem. We need more good men and woman in leadership. Men and woman with the rich men controlling them must go. I pray for common sense and healing of this plant and people.

If only...if only. I'm afraid humans just couldn't achieve this. Wonderful poem on the dream so many people DO have, now and in the past and I'm sure in the future as well.

A dream well worth having but something that seems like it will never happen. This is one outstanding poem.
