Humanity

A poem inspired by another WC poet... :)

Humanity 

I love you so

I discover you in 

my reflections 

All around 

conditioned souls

patience awaits in

life's directions 

If I could take you 

Humanity -

hold you long 

into the night 

We'd watch the lessons

to be learnt, 

witness dawning 

of new light

Humanity if I could 

rock you so 

learning what it means

to forgive

I 'd sing forgiveness in

a lullaby 

within the chorus

learn to live

Humanity 

You beat the drum

the rhythm holds

promise to discover

Empathy lost and 

new love found

to make life itself 

our lover

A wonderful poem, so well written. I love the entire poem but the last two verses are my favorite:
Humanity

You beat the drum
within the rhythm
I promise to discover

Empathy lost and
new love found
to make life itself
our lover

So very well said..

If I could take you - Humanity

and

hold you long

into the night


We could watch the lessons

to be learned

and the dawning

of new light

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Such a delightful poem with full os uplifting verses… you nailed that ending with wise force… I just love that ending. Sometimes it seems humanity is on life support, that is why those of us who believe can not give in or it humanity will flatline and it will be hell on Earth.

In the words of Garth Brooks in the song "The Change", "As long as one heart still holds on then hope is never really gone"

[KWP]

how true how true ... hope is eternal :) x x
