Poem
In times like these, "are the times which try men's souls." We desperately need to pray for peace during this twenty-first century. Talks and actions of hostile nations are igniting into flames of death and destruction. Do not the nations realize, nuclear weapons are capable of destroying humanity? Those who preach tyranny and terror do not really care! When President Harry S. Truman unleased the forces of hell, when he bombed Japan with the atomic bomb. He was hoping the nations of the world would be completely horrified. Maybe mankind would finally learn its lesson? We are now capable of creating and using weapons of massive destruction. Mankind, of course, did not learn its lesson. Creating even more destructive weapons! When the United States signed a nuclear arms reduction treaty with the Soviet Union, the Soviets never intended to honor those treaties. But the two nuclear giants had several things in common, the value of human life. They wanted to take over the world, not destroy it. They took over so much territory, they could not financially afford to provide for it. One of the reasons it collapsed was financial. They really did not want to destroy their umbrella Communist nations. Of course, they did not care about the basic human rights of their citizens. What about the Russians of the twenty-first century? They do not want to really die either? I am speaking about the people, not their leaders. What about nations such as Iran, and North Korea? They do not care about the survival of their people. They deprive them of their basic human rights! They do not care if they perish from the face of the earth. They do not care if they plunge the entire world into a nuclear destructive world war! They feel they have everything to gain and nothing to lose. According to God, the meek will inherit the earth. Those are words to live by regardless of faith, religion or politicals. Trusting God is the only really feasible solution to the forces of warfare today! Love as always! Roxanne Lea Dubarry aka Roxy Lea 1954 July 17, 2017
