Lets Do Something Different

All is peaceful inside the house
                             the somnolent are sleeping,
                                  curled up like a mouse
                                   A new day tomorrow                      
                              will bring news of the world
                            
                              We will see what man can do.....
                    
                   He was given this earth that he might subdue,
                       He could have the Lord to help him through
                   But, Lo he has chosen his own way to pursue
                                       If history follows,
                                  without the Lord there,
                     repeated mistakes when we leave his care.
                                       Then wars ensue
                                didn't we just pass this way,
                           I believe it is a repeat of yesterday?

A beautiful write, wonderfully composed and aptly woe filled with the sad truth that mankind errs today as man did in every century. BUT the good exist and grow, it's just that they're quiet with no ego, greed or power thrust to falsely raise their calm to LOUD. I really enjoyed your poem. All the best ... CayCAy
