Give It a Chance

We all possess dreams, that we aspire to achieve. Treat all with respect, no matter what you believe. Achievements can bring arrogance, and failures can humble. Support your brothers and sisters, pick them up when they stumble. Despite talent or beliefs, we all have the same goal. Attain knowledge from life, engage and enroll. We are all here together, embrace and show love. We can all help each other, like Noah and his dove. There has been some damage done, but together we can fix. We can spread around some love, before we're under by six. Our world is laden with partners, take some clock and unite in dance. Promote and construct, go out and give it a chance.

Your second line is something everyone should strive to offer each other...respect. In order to maintain the respect of others, it must be given. Your verse is to be admired, Mark. Nicely expressed.

Well said to both of you, mark the issue with commented being made, altered and sometimes deleted has gone on and on for years - but the hurt is done with those initial few words, and sadly folk end up leaving as admin can't see what has been happening :-) hugs Jan xx

If we all would stop and think of how our comments may effect someone else. I'm guilty of being a jerk at times, I have no problem apologizing and admitting I am wrong. I wish more could do the same.

There are those who think they are righteous in how they treat others with their own personal opinion. They just don't stop and think of how it effects those that they target. What I find most disturbing is that they will carry on like they were never in the wrong, it is so easy to say I'm sorry and maybe just maybe right a wrong.

Nice piece. Has there been unrest here on poetry soup? I've been away for some time, but I think your words hold the key to a more peaceful existence.
