Giving

A Poem by Sam Freeland
"

and our freedom

"
Everyone knows about giving
learned when we were born
Our mother did this for us
if she could do it without scorn
 
In a land of the free
mother takes her rightful place
When men control the scene
it is simply not the case
 
When men are in control
they do what their father did
They go to war and kill
doing as they had been bid
 
It is not new with humans
we are animals like all the rest
But when mothers have a say
society is at its best
 
Mothers are about survival
they hate war and the lives lost
If men would learn to listen
humans could avoid the awful cost
 
But this only happens rarely
in some free societies today
Most humans would rather kill
they think it is the only way
 
If you understand this message
there is still something you can do
Stop caring about a rich future
and give more to others too
 
Every gift will take us closer
to a life that is more free
And if you really believe it
much happier we all will be
