Come My Super Soupers

COME MY SUPER “SOUPERS”



Come, 
My super “soupers”,
Raise your inspired pens 
And 
Gallantly fight, 
The world’s suffering to
Alleviate, 
From its agony it to 
Liberate 
And
Hope for a better future to
Bring!

Come,
The turbulent oceans of misery    
And
The rough seas of hunger,
To pacify with your
Compassion! 
 

Come,
To remove the mountains of
Enmity and hate that history has raised 
In your way, 
So 
Free to run into each-other’s arms!

Come,
To plant, the merciless desert of  
Indifference, 
With fruit-bearing trees of concern, 
For your afflicted brothers!

Come,
The abyss of divisions,
Dug by wars and mistrust for thousands
Of years, to fill 
With  
Your universal brotherhood! 

And finally

Come, 
My fellow Super “Soupers”
The whole world to embrace
With 
The greatest force there is:
LOVE, 
Thus it will not be mine or yours
Anymore, but OURS!

“Understanding it!” That is music to my ears my dear friend. Aristotle, one of my forefathers, said that " We should speak and write in the most simple way as to be understood" I have followed his advice! Thank you!

Lovely poem, with lovely ideals and sentiments...Sometimes those most in need of love and attention aren't "OUT THERE" but closer to home...right in our sphere of influence. This is a wonderful call to action.

Dear Eileen, what you say is absolutely true! As they say “Charity starts at home” but what happens if those close to home do not wish to be helped? Thank you for your kind and generous comments!
