Who knows

Who Knows?

The air is clear ( I think)

At least I am not able

to see the dirt, that

permeates the air I breathe

yet, the day is nice

and I hear birds

chirping and chattering

are they talking to me?

Who knows.......

I see the world is filled

with devastation & destruction

Man is its own worst enemy

Iceland is melting from hot magma

The Gulf is being engulfed with oil

And Haiti has been shaken off its foundations

then flood after flood is causing untold deaths

What is this world coming to?

Who knows........

Wake up people, look alive

do not sit idly by

you must take a stand

one that's bold and grand

delve into your pockets

if you can.....

spare no change

for any will help

to help those less

fortunate than you

Can you stop to care?

Who knows.......

Who knows

what can happen

the rest of today,

tomorrow or the day after that

It's what you make happen

right now, this second in time

that matters the most

So will you do something

to help your fellow man?

Who knows........

I happened to watch a Nova special about ants tonight. Leaf cutter ants harvest some leaves from a tree and move on in the future they return to the same tree and harvest more leaves. Humans just tend to go for the Golden Goose method. Any bets on who will still be here in a million years?

You just never know what you are doing may be making a change; I think that you just must muster all of the goodness inside, constantly. When I wrote "Ellen," I never believed that someone would, actually, do what the story told; however, one young writer, took my words and tried to make a difference. There is a power in words that is fueled by faith, hope, and charity; you have the power. Keep writing and things will happen and change. Great thought provoking write; who knows?!

Who knows why other people constantly pollute everything? For the love of money I would say...which Paul called, "the root of all sorts of evils". Cure greed and you could cure most of the world's problems. But how do we do that?
