Lifes Troubles

We live in a fearsome world where nothing seems right And you don’t feel safe especially at night. It is full of bloodshed and violence With anger and war, can this world Take much more. The damage cannot be undone, the effects of Pollution has already won as the ozone layer Is fading away with the sunlight turning To grey as summerdays we once knew Are few, rather we have rain that flows Like rivers that never end, floodings Across the globe affecting people’s livelihoods, Homes and peace of mind people Truly wish to find as darkness and despair They cry out Does anyone really care, Wondering what life will throw their way Next as life is so full of change as unforeseen Occurrences befall us all without much warning At times. Surely we can agree that the world seems beyond help and The evil acts that take place is a cry in shame and Brings sheer disgrace to the human race. What can be done in this ever-changing world that we live, Can we improve and make it a better place to live With happy smiley people with hearts full of Love wanting to give to others Treating eachother as though they were a sister Or brother. Living in Peace and harmony With plenty of food to feed A multitude no matter what their race They have a place to call home With food on the table and A bed at night to keep them warm. Life would be much better adding meaning and to Make living more worthwhile, Bringing much joy really making you smile. Always have hope in your heart That someday we can all be part of a world Where we live in Peace and Happiness and life everlasting That will not cease.
