Twinkling of An Eye

We live in the universe Billion miles wide The planet earth is Billion years old We are tiny specs In this vast universe And we stay on this planet For a twinkling of an eye While we are here Let’s be friends Let’s hold hands with each other Let’s look at each other With a broad smile Sing a song of brotherhood Even for a twinkling of an eye

My views too! Wisdom is slow to come, should be in the twinkling of the eye.

Hi -Dong, I like the message of this poem. May you stay around for at least two twinklings. -Richard

As one who lived thru the Japan's rule of Korea and the Korean War, and lost my loved ones, my dream has been the peace and brotherhood of mankind. Let's play rather than hate and kill.
