Love Knows No Diversity Let us build an allied world built with peace Where all are loved for who or what they be A world that embraces diversity No secrets to hide, no adversity. A place where love is measured by one's heart Not by who they have as their other half Love is a gift that God gave us to share A reason to live to love and to care. Should all conform to ideas of norm? Who says what's normal, why we should reform God is our judge and only He has sway He enters our hearts and shows us the way. A world that has no animosity Is what the earth was created to be All nations are different and unique Why can't we all join hands over the sea. Variety's essence of life, they say If only everyone saw life that way God gave us love to aid the world spin round Does it truly matter where love is found. 30th June 2021

WoW! Belle, This is my kind of write hands down. I long for the world that you write about. Love is key, I hope and pray for hate to be eradicated. We don't have to agree to be civil and respectful. We must strive to love and respect others, agree to disagree. I can on and about this positive write. Worthy of p.o.t.d or p.o.t.w. In my opinion.It's going straight into my fav collection.

Thank you so much Alexis, I wrote this for our church newsletter a couple of years ago, it went down well, they loved it as it was a topic being discussed in the church at the time. I truly appreciate your review… Belle

Hello Belle … power and greed along with corruption are needed to be eliminated and maybe then toleration and understanding just might make a good start - thank you Belle - Lindsay

Hi Lindsey, so many things are wrong and out of order, as you say it’s power, greed and corruption that leads to worldwide disruption. Thank you Lindsay… Belle

After reading a poem about protecting our borders, I am reminded by your poem that plants attempting to grow at the wrong time or place, wither and die, yet some find a way for their offspring to flourish elsewhere . . . .

Where there’s a will there’s a way, love will always overcome, problems and diversity. “Wherever seeds of love are sown God will see that they are grown.” Thank you Rico ~ Belle

I agree with you 100% my friend but there are those who can't enjoy life unless they are on soap box pointing out what others are doing wrong. It's boat rockers like that that cause most problems to get worse. I say get off the soap box and get your hands dirty helping instead of hindering. Well said my friend. God Bless, JB

Thank you Judy, I believe we should live and let live, and not interfere in someone else’s business. God bless, Belle
