Honoring All Countries Trio





so proud of your country
were taught to honor others
mark of an adult

stand with great pride
no matter how big or small
all are one, do admire

how small you become
joke not of others homeland
smallness, just derides

Such truth. Honor others, no matter of size. We are all created equal. There is one race, the human race. Nationality, creed, class, gender, religion, ethnicity, age; we all ought to mutually respect and honor one another. Well said, Panagiota ~ John

Oh, dear John! We live in a hated country. PS's home base in in the USA. It matters not what we do. Better come back as member of another country, change your name. Even Americans hate each other. The very ill propoganda machine...is destructive, I learned here that as an American, I am a lesser being? So be it. I have respected others from all countries all my life. What the heck for. They hate me and you...that's what they learned. Endgame...tragic...Pangie hugs xxx

The focus of these Senryus was to honor other countries.Re-read the title..too much conceit over one's country and disregard for others. The news in the USA....out to demolish the USA..not honor it. Such grandiose highly paid morons in our media. Not only that, they lie! Then add foreign media who think the USA is a cartoon. It's quite hurtful. We are human beings..Pangie xxxooo

Of course! You won't find me mucking about making fun of others leaders or countries. All counties have challenges. Who am I to judge? Was trained to honor all countries. Pangie xx
