I know God is in charge, but I also know we as humans, have strayed from His teaching. It's my prayer that as a society we return to God's loving care. Thank you for sharing this poem with us.

This work has reached the exceptional level

You have pointed out many of our negative characteristics.

We must repair our spiritual house; it is divided into a kaleidoscope of negative consequences, driven by those who seek woke clarifications people, places, and times.

We must deny subjective, conjured definitions, that have confirmation in science or religion.
The answers are in the Bible.

Harry's soul-searching and heart-warming words have returned. They are a perfect reminder that the world is spinning off its axis and we are forgetting about the important things--love, joy, and peace. The rich think life is grand and forget about the smaller people who struggle every day to make things meet. We fight wars amongst ourselves and with those across the seas. It's all senseless. Happy New Year to YOU!
Hugs, Carol

This reads so lyrically, Harry, your fine words could almost be put to music. I too despair (as we all do) about our failure to achieve enduring peace in a war-ravaged world. Thank you for sharing your gentle but powerful post. Take care Debbie

This poem moves from large issues to easy-to-grasp examples nicely. War is big. A single gurney is easy to picture. Nicely done. I like the yearning for something better present in this poem.

Harry,

This is a great poem about love and war. The whole world has gone crazy and it seems that only the little people such as ourselves notice it. We need world peace.

Well done

Cecilia

Your poem really struck me. The raw emotion in each line paints a picture of the longing you feel for peace. I especially love how you captured the imbalance between the rich and the poor. It's such a powerful message. I feel like your words are an important reminder of what we all should strive for.
