One man impacted so many, all these years later his words & actions of peace live on..
If we all remember to act in peace, kindness, understanding in our everyday lives & decisions what a positive trickle down impact we have on those around us, strangers we encounter... our country and the world can only benefit positively..for it is not just environment that is in need of protection, but humanity needs protection.. to know love still exists, that hands are there to hold, and tears are there to share..and peace is a possible that is within all our hands... sorry to blather on...but you wrote the poem ( :

I can imagine. If only it could come true in a world that is hell bent on stopping it from becoming reality! We must each do what we can to make the world a better place and then we can go to bed at night with a clear conscience and hold those who shall not a better life in our hearts with hopes of a better time for them!! Suffering comes in many forms!! Relief comes in too few!!
If only.....Life is what happens when we're busy making other plans....

Lennon was a heroin addict and made a crap load of money so he could live in a butterfly world and looked what happened to him. Life is fragile, trust me.
Those were wonderful thoughts indeed and I agree how great they would be... then you look at another side, if life was so perfect we wouldn't appreciate it as much. It would be nice if the world had more compassion and understanding for sure.
Thanks Dale...yes, I know, yin and yang, but it's a nice thought.

What a world that would be!! In fifth grade we were given the writing assignment titled: if u were to change the world, what would you change? Naturally with a class full of 30 eleven year olds mostly boys, peace was the last thing on their mind....I think free hot tubs for everyone was the most popular idea, but hey, a dreams a dream ;)

Of course they are haha who doesn't love hot tubs?? My pleasure amiga
An amazing tribute to one of the greats of singers and artists like yourself dear poetess. The message resonates with me for I like to give peace a thousand chances before any unjust wars for power and greed where the few get rich for it is a big business of death and creating widows and orphans. God will judge those power hungry eventually for no crime will go unpaid. But that to the side let us celebrate the man and honor your pen...:)

Always such a lovely review from you Sami, most gracious, thanks so much!
that is a great poem, more like a utopia, such a world with sweet butterfly kises is a hell of distance from our grip! not with these invisible wars going on, but as lenonsaid, that is no excuse not to give peace a chance, but hey what do they know of peace when all they do is fight for their betterment. and he is not the only dreamer round there.
If you want to know me, read my poetry, it's all in there. I am a mother of three sons (my finest moments) a sister, a survivor and a little bit crazy. I lost my beloved sister to suicide, so you'll.. more..
