Our World Today

Why is it in this world People never can agree There’s bigotry, prejudice and hatred Around us, so clear that all can see People argue and fight to prove That there way is correct With no room for compromise To them there is no doubt That they are the chosen ones They speak with their God direct Who has given them a special right To denounce others who would dare, Question the infallibility, of one so fair Expect no justice, peace or freedom to exist It never can, it never will, until we can agree Were not just nations but a world-wide community That looks after all its peoples where ever they may be Which ensures that all respect the rights of humanity

Your use of simple words and ideas are easy to digest and strike a common cord of familiarity. Emile.
