LOVE AND PEACE

LOVE AND PEACE

Why is there so much hunger in the world
So much hatred and abused being hurled
Why not peace and goodwill to all mankind
People in power are they in their right mind

Egalitarianism now that is a word to swallow
Some believe in god some the temple of Apollo
Why do beliefs lead to hatred and destruction
Love thy neighbour as thyself, no more abduction

Terrorism what does it solve the innocent hurt
So many countries fighting some always on alert
Racism why do people hate the colour of skin
We all believe in something all got a christ within

Bob Marley a mixed raced man that reached hearts
Touched the minds of many people songs in the charts
His words transcended the barriers of culture and race
One love one heart lets get together, lets embrace

Ghandi that skinny bald headed asian man what a guy
Wearing nothing but a bedsheet, taught others to fly
Martin luther king one need only mention his name
Their names will be hung up in the hall of fame

What is this whole racism trip where did we all descend
Is there an analogy that is between us and them my friend
Hope this poem gives us food for thought maybe discussion
In a nice world there would be no sorrow pain or repercussions


Love
xxAngelxx

You have written well what needs to be followed in the heart. I hope I will learn to be a better person as well.
