I Wonder Why?

“ I Wonder Why….” The famous question “mommy and daddy why?” That’s daily what parents hear Kids want any kind of answers even when the answers are not clear With age they somewhat understand, but others unknown don’t let them sleep Mysteries of the world and life make them faster breath. I wonder why The Earth is full of beauty just watch how birds are flying On the other hand, in so many places, there are children dying When I listen to a river I want to sing But why we keep destroying them make me think I wonder why Here and then I think about war and peace About hunger in foreign countries, ignorance is a dangerous disease If I could have wish, I would be an angel with magnificent wings I would tie them around The Universe with love that can’t be broken by any things I wonder why With innocence children are born and with that question why And parents try keeping them safe and do not want to see them cry What happens to someone when he or she grows up? What happens to people’s purity that makes it break up? I wonder why It is a New Year and New Year Resolutions are made I want to make good one I do not want anybody betrayed Follow my example and this time please do not ask why Because if you think you have to, you are the reason why my dreams could die Sometimes you do not have to ask why Giving each other hope, and sharing love could make the world a better place It should come from the heart, from the inner you, with a feeling of peace and grace Reach our potential, growing like a healthy and strong tree With millions of little branches moving in the breeze unbreakable and free Sometimes you do not have to ask why Free of hunger, loneliness, emptiness and fear Free of diseases and sicknesses that bring to our eyes a tear Let’s hold our hands with love and hope And our hands will make a chain around a globe Sometimes you do not have to ask why That chain will be tight like that angel wings what I was dreaming once And even stronger and stay forever not only days or months Let’s make this promises and promise’s can come true If everyone will give up selfishness, we can really make this year a NEW! And do not asks me a why
