We can, together.

All we need is love to

stand strong together

as one. 

not all

these hatred and wars that only claims a lot from us.

Killing  and  raping,  with  slavery  and  segregation,

let us not allow these or  racism to destroy our world.

You may be white          and                      I am black.

She is coloured                                           or he is an

Indian. None of                                      these matters

if we can see                                                                  

ourselves as one.                                                           

As brothers, as                                                              

sisters, as people                                              of        

a world where                                                peace,    

love and harmony                                       can reign   

and bring joy back                                     to us like a  

drop of water                                                 rolling      

down the throat                                                              

of a thirty man.                                                              

What a relief would                                                        

that bring! Kindness                                                       

brightens a sad face                                                        

it could save millions                                                        

from ending their own lives.

I agree my friend.
"Kindness
brightens a sad face
it could save millions
from ending their own lives. "
The above lines, we must do. We need to lead with concern, kindness and listen. Would be a better world. Thank you Kay for sharing the outstanding poetry.

I am adventurous,and I think the technique adds some meaning to the main idea.
There is a natural divide when we are judgmental.
Segregation isn’t fun and is never a perfect picture.
I wish people ask themselves what color of air they breath in every time they let tribe,race,sex,religion color cloud their judgement.

[Kay Salisu Titilola]

That was a powerful perspective, Sarah.
I really wish people would.

[Titilayo Sarah Eguridu]

Thank you Kay,
You inspired that perspective

[John the Baptist]

I agree with sentiments in this one, but tribalism is as old as humanity. Love alone can contain it, but love must have desire behind it.

[Kay Salisu Titilola]

I just wish people would understand that the world can be a safer and beautiful place to live.
Thank you for your insight, John.

[Cherrie Palmer]

If we could embrace the golden rule to love our neighbor as ourself how much better life would be. I don't know when people will see past skin and see the true beauty of each soul.
Excellent poem Kay

[Kay Salisu Titilola]

Exactly!
The world is too blind to see the beauty in diversity.
Thank you for your remarkable review Cherrie.

[R.J Calzonetti (Siniste..]

While there are one or two spelling mistakes, your poem is remarkably beautiful. You and your poem have the power to change society on a small level, as do I, and anyone. Maybe if enough people think like you do, change will be possible. I'm glad to know that there are people like you, who are kind. I particularly like the structure of your poem to support your statement, the shape of a water faucet. Thank you for sharing.

[Kay Salisu Titilola]

Thanks you for your remarkable review, RJ.
If everyone is kind, life would have been better off.
