Thomas Flood Poet Rhyme

the world of more

The world of more 

On this planet that we live on 
Which supplies our every need 
Why are surrounded by 
This overwhelming greed.

More money 
More needs
More land 
More greed 

More wars 
More hate 
More death
More debate 

More storms 
More disease 
More hunger 
More displeased 

More Possessions 
More haste 
More loneliness 
More waste 

More pollution 
More cars 
More toxic clouds 
Less stars 

The moral of the story 
Is we need to take a stand 
The only thing we need more of 
Is more loving, of your fellow man.
