Thought of the Day
Welcome to Planet Earth,
Our very own looney bin,
Where no human
Is without sin.
Surely it is not only us out there,
Perhaps more advanced beings,
Or, perhaps not,
In an eternal universal space,
There must be another
Inhabited place,
No matter who they are
Or who they be.
Rumour has it, we are contagious
That the symptoms we display,
Will reach galactic proportion,
Bringing upon us diseases, lack of water
Deforestation, many a misfortune,
Oh dear God, forgive us,
We have ruined,
Almost all that you gave us,
Sadly through over population,
God, have you reached your tether
With us, we have even
Altered out weather,
Animals have no home, forests
Are being depleted,
Because of Mans greed,
Our asylum can no longer proceed,
We must concede,
For we have to succeed,
No one knows what to do,
We are losing our sanity,
Suicides, murders, torture,
We must search or souls
To regain humanity,
And refrain from profanity
It was predictable,
Many have become despicable,
War, criminality, sheer brutality,
Our children through social media
losing their innocence and individuality,
We need salvation,
And must open our doors to
The poor, the desperate, the needy
Whoever the Nation,
Remember we all come under
The same umbrella, of God’s creation.
