A Letter To the World

HELLO WORLD THERE IS SOMETHING THAT I MUST TELL YOU:

I SEE YOU TRYING TO COMFORT THE MANY WOUNDED SOULS OF THE DAY.

WHILE MANY ARE BEING TAKEN AWAY THE NIGHTS ARE LONGER THAN THE DAYS MORE COLDER THAN A POPSICLE.

THE SEASONS COME AND GO SO FAST IT SEEMS LIKE NOTHING IS GOING TO LAST.

PEOPLE ARE SO MUCH MEANER THAN THEY ARE NICE THEY'RE HEARTS ARE COLD AS ICE.

THEY ARE STEALING AND KILLING NOT THINKING ABOUT THE MANY HEARTS THEY ARE ABOUT BREAK.

LEAVING LOVED ONES HURTING AND TRYING TO STAY AWAKE.

DEVASTATION IS EVERYWHERE IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYTIME YOU TURN AROUND SOMETHING ESLE COMES UP.

IF IT IS NOT COMING FROM THE LEFT IT IS COMING FROM THE RIGHT  I ASK MYSELF HOW AM I GOING TO MAKE IT THROUGH THE NIGHT.

OH WORLD WHERE DID YOU WARMTH AND PROTECTION GO WE NEED IT TO SURVIVE.

PEOPLE ARE CRYING OUT FOR YOUR LOVE, YOUR AFFECTION AND YOUR TENDERNESS.

DON'T TURN YOUR BACK ON THE PEOPLE WHO NEED YOU AND SEEK YOU FOR GUIDANCE.
 
WORLD WE NEED YOU THIS INSTANT SO DON'T YOUR BACK ON US

I am very happy to have been able to read your poetry today Quondreika. I do not have a lot of words to comment on it but I want you to know I did read it. Every poem as with every poet has a different meaning and I do not wish to misinterpert your poetry. I do love reading poetry here and I get inspiration from others poetry which enables me to write new poetry myself. There are lots of wonderful people who give great comments here and I hope they all read your poetry and comment. Love, Carol
