Poems Sue – The News
Reading the newspapers today, ..turns out feeling sad
What is happening with the world, everything seems so bad
Murdering, Raping, Hurricanes and a Quake
Fires, Accidents, Wars
what else does it take
To destroy us human kind and this earth
All this fighting and killing would it really be worth?
And for what? Religion, Money, Power, the Colour of our skin?
Will there once be peace? Perhaps a new world to begin?
What is it that we humans need these “leaders” for, are they so right??
Telling us what to do or believe …to live in peace or to fight?
They fight their own wars, pulling along a whole nation
And this goes on and on, with each new generation
Well, I have learned one great thing through the journey on my way ..
Keep believing in myself
.and try to follow my heart day by day
.
