COMES A TIME…(©Peter Sprenkeler)
Comes a time in the life of each,
When you have to make a stand.
You just have to question all you see,
And the burdens life…does of you demand.
Comes a time when enough is ample,
From the roof-tops shout "I don't understand".
Injustice and hate pervades so much of your world,
So common and prolific in each and every land.
Comes a time when you can no longer remain aloof,
Your opinion matters…your concern does count.
A resolve must materialise…you can make a difference,
The world's mayhem…you can surmount.
Comes a time…when it all ends up with you,
You are the last line of defence.
You will stand cool…with defiant and resolute strength,
When everything in your world just makes no sense.
Comes a time when a realisation sweeps through your mind,
You are a small ray of light…in this dark, foreboding world.
And the tiniest drop of your love can extinguish,
The largest fire of hatred that is at you and others hurled.
Comes a time when wrong can with you no longer sit,
You know you are able to bring about social right.
Injustice is your enemy…but by peaceful means,
You step up to the plate…and with righteousness you will fight.
Comes a time when many will be of the same mind,
There is a growing legion of people…with courage and resolve.
This world grows tired…wearied by war and apathy and hate.
Around these folk and you…the world's future does revolve.
