Upside Down Scratching My Head

Fact of every day life, is in all one thought process everything you hear, is about wars killing spending multi-millions on weaponary to then create suffering little children Crying poor, in their mothers and fathers arms thrown to the wolves,they who are defenceless meek and humble innocent people cry in our shame Rather than spend a lot less money on helping we as people should unite showing one world vow To gather under the banner all hearts and souls in one with love rather than the faces of greed and hate tearing this planets resources asunder Not sharing in our planets wealth god given unto us an abundance of beauty the world is tainted At our conception, birth with us, we who have it all in the world at your fingertips, same right By god's given decree birth to share and love everything on our planet now that includes our televisions, sweet nothing but pumping deadly poison like dark clouds drawing one sided entering into people minds when they are at peace 13 syllable unlucky 11 syllables standing on two legs what i believe is right 12 syllables searching truth heavenly love answers, end 13 count how long will it be before time runs out lucky or unlucky smiling peace

You've had your say, Liam, and the verdict is ... excellent! Wealth is being squandered; wars favour the rich and corrupt. Is change just a dream? // paul

I find your poem very warm. The irony is that we spend billions on armaments but care little for underfed. So long such type of mindset persists we cannot expect peace.But we must be all heart to our brethren. Love is the only way. take care liam . Best wishes XXXX rajat
