The World is Bleeding

The world is bleeding badly as we know This haemorrhage started many years ago. A band aid will not fix its gaping wound So, to be frank I fear we may be doomed. This bleeding seems to seep across earth’s land From many causes we can’t understand. And now this wound is such a festered sore If not stopped soon, we’ll bleed to death for sure. . Our world is such a truly treasured prize But man can’t see what is before their eyes. The wars, the hate, the politics, the greed, Just many causes making our world bleed. Perhaps there is a doctor here today A specialist who may show us the way. On how to seal our wounds and make them right Fix up our world, with knowledge and insight. To teach us all how we must stem the flow If in the future bleeding starts to show. A pressure bandage soon must be applied And only when the blood stops then untied.
