Make Sense?

The world would be a better place
If all would use their eyes to see
That there are those who need so much
More than you and me.

The world would be a better place
If all would use their ears to hear
The little children who always cry
Because of all their fears.

The world would be a better place
If all would use their hands to touch
Another in need of love or aide
It would help them very much.

The world would be a better place
If all would use their noses to smell
Instead of sticking them where not belonging
Then they would serve them well.

The world would be a better place
If all would use their mouths to taste
Rather than speak always out of turn
And react and speak so ill with haste.
