Poem
(Dedication: For people of goodwill who share a common humanity on this lovely Mother Earth, may the light of truth, love and beauty shine forevermore.) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is a light Certain and true That offers sight When sense pays dues. There is a way To live true quest Through night and day As soul knows best. Dark is the day When dreary thoughts Frame evil ways In ego's plot. Dark are the times When hate finds ways To hush sweet rhymes With dread that slays. How can love kill With brutal art To threaten will With vile upstarts? How can killings Make this old world Good for living In anguished swirls? True religion Will comfort each With compassion And kind outreach. True religion Will join all parts Not ambition With broken hearts. These crazy times Sparked by evil To herald chimes Wrought by devils. These dreary days Sired by fancy To foster ways That kill what's free. Love is the sign That all is well When heart aligns Free will to dwell. Love is the way That shows us how To live each day With true peace now. Evil men slay The godly good As hatred strays Upon their moods. Evil men show Their violent tact As madness flows, Self-destruct acts! Love is the way The true light shines As each man may Heed the divine. Love is the truth That gives free will To know sure proof In joy that fills. Leon Enriquez 15 January 2015 Singapore
