Tomorrow

Yesterday Asians, Jews today
Yet Native Americans pray,
"To settle a score
Grant us love, not war,
So children can go out to play!"

Quite a profound limerick, Rico. I wonder if we will ever find peace among people of all nationalities. A powerful message, my friend. Hugs, Carolyn

Hello Rico ... at this time there appears to be so much hate and blame. If it's war people want they should be careful about what they wish for - great limerick Rico - Lindsay
