Just a Thought

This was something that came to me when i was remembering the people of Haiti, their spirit is amazing!

              Just a thought
                     

               All life is pure, to the poor and the innocent, it’s an easy thing really.

                    So, as a modern society of sophistication and rights.

                  Cities with towering skyscrapers and bright lights

                   Why do we find it so hard?

the temptation of entitlement seduces us all. we harbor leverage as if it is some given right, when, truly, we are here, as a species, directly as the result of our ability to sustain symbiotic relationships; so much so, we have developed social unions and civilizations that have grown larger and more luxurious. how silly it is to live in the delusion of a superiority complex. but, the good news is once this awareness has reached critical mass for our species we'll all evolve as a morphogenic field washes over all of our perspectives....one need only focus on one's own path of enlightenment. thanks for sharing.

awesomely done. I loved it very much, and it was highly uplifting. It was a great pick-me-up.

I like this thought that you have put on paper. There are many answers of that question.

simple and yet so profound. I believe you hit the bullseye with this piece:)

I almost missed the significance of this, I read it so fast. I am glad I slowed down. You are right, why do we find it so hard to surpass our greed and get to the heart of the matter. Very good.

This poem will inspire many people if many people read this. It tells you that all life on this earth is in its own special way, precious. I hope in the future more people will come to realize this just as you have. Nice job!

All life should be precious. The people of the poor countries need help and direction. Direction isn't guns. Could be assisting with farming skills and medicine. A world based on war can't see the starving and homeless people everywhere.
"All life is pure, to the poor and the innocent, it’s an easy thing really."
A outstanding poem. A poem that could open the door to a good conversation.
