Why

I watch the sunrise in the sky
I ask God the question why.
Why is there hatred in the world?
Why are there starving boys and girls?
Why is there addiction everywhere?
Why are people not willing to share?
Why is there prejudice and fear?
Why are people more far than near?

I say God please tell me why
He whispers a simple reply.
You must experience bad to know good
You must do right as you know you should
You must love everyone
God the Father and The Son....
You must spread Hope,Faith and Love
If you persevere in all you do
All the Why's, will come to you........
