Hi-Dong Chai Poet Free verse

Twinkling of An Eye

We live in the universe
Billion miles wide
The planet earth is
Billion years old

We are tiny specs
In this vast universe
And we stay on this planet
For a twinkling of an eye

While we are here
Let’s be friends
Let’s hold hands with each other
Let’s look at each other
With a broad smile
Sing a song of brotherhood
Even for a twinkling of an eye

Krish Radhakrishna December 16, 2019 at 3:58 AM My views too! Wisdom is slow to come, should be in the twinkling of the eye.

Quoth Theraven August 21, 2019 at 11:14 PM Hi -Dong, I like the message of this poem. May you stay around for at least two twinklings. -Richard Quoth Theraven September 24, 2019 at 11:33 PM I can get behind that my friend...TAG! Your it! -Richard Hi-Dong Chai August 22, 2019 at 10:32 AM As one who lived thru the Japan's rule of Korea and the Korean War, and lost my loved ones, my dream has been the peace and brotherhood of mankind. Let's play rather than hate and kill.
