How We Could Change The World

How We Could Change The World

A Poem by peter Duggan
"

Making the world a better place

"

How we could change the world

 

When will people learn this thing

That everything is one

We must learn to love, not hate

We must throw away all guns

And learn to love all things that live

Put forgiveness in our hearts

Stop wanting always to fight each other

And let perfection start

 

We have this planet cut in pieces

With countries everywhere

As politicians wave their flags

And only wars they share

As they make us hate each other

And never teach us bliss

They just look for greed and power

This is the way it is

 

We need leaders with wisdom

To make our world feel grand

Instead of all this competition

Wherever there is land

We need to push hatred away

And hold our hands in peace

As all the horror in this world

We will give all this release

 

We do not need those ancient books

We need to look within

Then we will see just who we are

Then love it will begin

Then hearts would sing a symphony

And glory would be here

Then every day we’ll wake from sleep

And life will be so dear
