A Love Song For the Universe

A love song for the universe
(If all would sing) could travel high,
Its notes of harmony traverse
the paths of stars beyond the sky!

And if all "feeling" souls could hear
A love song for the universe,
There'd be an end to hate and fear,
So join and sing this simple verse. . .

Whose strains sung strongly could immerse
All worlds in peace, sweet melody,
A love song for the universe.
Why can't it be sung easily?

And with eternal hope will cling
All spirits who need not rehearse
What all of us so need to sing,
A love song for the universe!

Good luck in the contest with this well written poem that reads like a winner..All things are singing praise to their creator we just can't hear it ...We can only hear a small portion of it..I am glad that you enjoyed reading my work and hope that you gained a new or different insight from something that I penned..Sara

Hey, i'm listening to this instrumental while reading your poem. Tears Of Joy by Orchestra Lunatica. "All spirits who need not rehearse" I like that line. The song is within us all, huh. Good luck in the contest.

Andrea, I wish that love song would emerge from our hearts, filled with peace and love for other creatures throughout the universe. A very creative take on the contest, my friend, and you'll excel in the contest with this imaginative entry. As for the age-hider, we know her well. 'Nuff said. Love, Carolyn
