PEACE

Peace is a dream but has not yet been prevailed

Is it blasphemous that America cares more about themselves and money than their spirituality?

And that the government has money for war and none to feed the poor?

No money for peace and equality?

Seeing the tragedies such as the holocaust but yet ignore the holocaust that happens everyday with aborting our babies that only want to be loved.

The behind the scene brutal murders of our animals that would only sicken you knowing what happens to them before you take that first bite.

Those animals that are called pets that you breed and abuse and leave for dead that only want love.

Nature all around the world dismayed and put to a quivering halt from dismantlement and heartlessness.

Even in your own communities' physical, sexual, mental abuse and death has become much too common.

Gun shots and weapons become much too normal.

Starvation around the world, children begging for that one bite or one drink to survive while you cringe at that bite that does not satisfy your expectations.

Hate knows no race nor gender nor age it is a despicable pit of despair.

Look deeper into your soul

look past that electronic device that your brain paralyzes in front of and look at our world.

Look at our people.

Our human race.

Peace seems like a distant imagination.

A dream.

Peace is actually an actuality that can be perceived and accomplished if everyone would be selfless and enjoy a what could be a beautiful life.

A beautiful world.

World peace.

PEACE

You obviously feel very passionately about our species, as do I. I like that you didn't bother yourself with rhyme, as this can dilute your message sometimes. You covered a lot of ground in this piece, but you tie it all up at the end beautifully.
I'm pointing this out in a helpful way, I think you spelled physical incorrectly.

Excellant poem, keep up the good work!

I fixed that error in my spelling. I was writing it very late at night and didn't notice. Also I don't like to rhyme in my poetry. I just don't feel it is necessary to get a point across. Thank you for your review.

Almost every country beat this drum but in realty they made war head at the name of peace.
Lovely and real poetry.

It is hard seeing how we take things for granted...food, clothes, shelter, etc. We all seem to want more more more...yet forget how blessed we really are compared to others. It would be nice if we all took more time caring and thinking of those around us instead of always ourselves. What a day that will be when we will have a peaceful world.

Good Job

[Isabel Love]

I care very much about everything that goes on in this world. I think about it alot. Thank you.

Yeah I do too...yet sometimes we can't change what it is...we can't change people into caring if they are not that way, they must change themselves. I was speaking for the majority of the time...but I do not know how much people really do care and just don't know what to do about it, it is just sad seeing these things happen and having some people not seeming to care.
You're welcome
