Let It Be Today

Oh, my Lord, Is there a time in Thy divine plans That Righteous hearts, rebellious will become For The injustices of this tormented world, to Chase away? That compassion and love, forces will join, to Overcome indifference and hate? That tears of pain and desperation, replaced will be By laughter and hope? That enemies, will not exist but only friends? That this world will not be mine or his but ours? That peace will reign over Thy dominion and war will Capitulate? If the answer is, YES , my Lord, I implore Thee, Let this time from TODAY start and let it last for All ETERNITY! (C) Demetrios Trifiatis 08 October 2015

longest time friend. You've just exhibited to the highest quality exactly what I have missed in here for months. Your lines are so exciting and your words are each having that second hand of drawing me back to them again and again and again irrespective of how many times I have gone through them. Its nice to be home and you are part of the reason I have this refreshing feeling. A definite 7. Cheers!

Wonderful Demetrios. Our Lord can do anything Demetrios and if it was left up to him we would have what your asking for. Unfortunately he gives men and women choices and the choices so far have been not so good. There is evil in this world. Dark forces wanting to go against the good, the right, the righteous. Someday we will be together with all that you mention my brother. Loved this Demetrios!
