I wrote this the day after the Pulse nightclub shooting in Florida

Stagnant hateful world we live Something has got to give Mass destruction of the human soul Innocent lives have become the toll False prophets who have manipulated the word Has planted a seed in every boy and girl It's time to take back ALL our lost And teach them love at any cost Stop judging people on how they look Or who they love,or what book

Life is not easy in our modern world but if you can reach one person and help them become a better person that could be a great asset to you and to them. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. Sara K

In every poem of yours I see the deep empathy you have for the world. How difficult it is to change the world and the psyche of mankind?! Can our poems do that?! I hope , I wish and pray aloud the God

I will never say a tragedy like a shooting has any posative side whatsoever. What i noticed in times like these though is that when sorrows and misery come, human hope, love and peace come to meet them as displayed by the thoughts in your well weitten poem. Excellent and welcome to the soup!

Jessica Z, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
