No violence in love...

My mind got tire. I wrote nothing lately. Time for us to create change. If we don't. Violence will find us.

T.L.C.

Tender loving care...

Today our world is struggling. Today so many tears for the many men, women and children being murdered by mad men. Our world need T.L.C. Our world is becoming messy and time for us, who believe in love. Time for us who believe in family, to gather as one. The children need a safe place to go to school. Grandma and Grandpa need to feel safe when the shop. I can't understand why men would kill the innocence. Hard to create change when wealth control our nation. Like the wonderful song told us. No violence in love. Time for grandparent, parent, men and women to stand for no violence. No automatic weapons being sold. We need less guns and more kindness.

After the Texas mass killings. The children gathered and they demanded change. Where were the adults? A silent voice, a quiet life. Accept life as-is. The 50 Republican Senators who voted against raising the selling of gun to 21 years old, background checks. Their greed and the NRA. Should be held responsible for the killing of the children and two teachers.

Today I feel helpless and the next election. I will ensure I study the candidates. Time for change. Millions are losing their homes in the USA, food prices making life impossible to maintain and the gas prices. What do the common women or common man do? I hope in the next election. We do a cleaning out of the rich Senators and lifetime politicians. 

Today I hold heavy sadness for 19 beautiful children and two wonderful teachers. I don't know, should I cry or should I scream? I do know. It is time. Time to stop the violence. Stand as one for the safety of our children.

No violence in love.

This poem strikes the reality of our time in a raw writing of what’s wrong with our country, so many things……violence in so many different ways, a divided country, half have no love at all, no compassion for others, half have that compassion, but it does not solve our problems; we must come together on so many issues, almost impossible….. you nailed all of this issue in a strong piece ; there is no violence in love….. but do we hold that to be true? Great writing! Best, B

You are right, C, the world is struggling. We all feel the stress from it. Some, however, can't handle it and express their terror in violence. We have to find a way to keep guns out of the hands of these cracked weaker vessels.

I agree John. Yesterday more mass killings. Thank you for reading and the comment.

I have two neighbors. Single mothers with children. Can't pay their bills. Can lose their homes. 40,000 people in the nearby counties are in the same place. They are working. But working isn't enough.

I agree. It is tough in the South too. God help us all.

[Sami Khalil]

I totally agree with this truthful and worthy message. We need change. We need control of greed, power and violence. Change will come slowly but surely.
