A sensible message, well-rhymed, and, no doubt, well-received. Your heart is in the right place, but, unfortunately, you are, as they say, preaching to the choir.
Those who could benefit from your pleas, will not have read past the first few stanzas, if that far. The rest of us nod our heads in agreement.
Peace,
Don

Oh you are so right, yet just one neigh sayer who reads has then had a tiny seed planted, and you never know, it might possibly have some sort of positive effect on them! I will always be a dreamer, who holds on to hope, no matter what anybody says. I've heard it my entire life from my mother, about how I should stop dreaming and do something with myself. I'm still dreaming! Thank you for your excellent review and your kind comments too. If something bad ever happens, I mean really bad, mark my words people will come to the aid of each other. We all have good in us, even if other people can;t see it!

Lovely, dear author. You know what? There are some sentiments here which are well put, regardless of who is in power. Shows your thoughts go much deeper than the now, and with it good quality for all.
Nicely done, without being detrimental.
My best wishes.

Thank you very much for your excellent review and your kind words as well! I am a believer in the unbelievable and hold on to hope when everyone else around me says there is no hope. That's just how I am. Thank you again for your kind comments!

This is a well written free verse. You are right that we need to accept differneces and see the similarities. We all have things in common. Love will bring peace and a better world for all. It may bring believers another type of life also.

Comment from Autumn Splendour
Interesting rendition of what makes a leader. The image fits the content.
Yes, it's long winded, not the form for a poem.This would have been better if it is written in prose rather than poetry.

Thank you for your review and your comments. I really do need to educate myself better so that I categorize my work in its proper place. Thank you for reading it.
Comment from Kerry Foley Robinson
That was wonderfully written..
Heart, soul, and love sure would lead us to perfection.
The second half after "I beg you" was my favorite parts.

Hi Moon baby,
It is an excellent message. I fear there is no way to remove the greed and corruption in this world, or the want and love for money. Perhaps, someday, people, collectively as a whole will come to their senses and realized that there are many things that are much more important than that.
Thanks for sharing

Here, here, I agree with you as well. As a dreamer who likes to dream, A LOT, I can't help but think what a great world we could have if everyone used their heart and soul more often! Thank you again.

Moon Baby, Your poem is well written, I have written similar passages. Talking about living the way God intended. Loving our neighbors as ourselves. It would be heaven on earth. Jesus was crucified, yet what law did he break? People called out for Barabaus, a murderer, to be set free. Yes, this was God's prophecy, because he was sent so we could have eternal life. Hitler wanted to eliminate the Jews because he wanted a superior race, LOVE would not have stopped him. The president of North Korea..do You really believe LOVE would stop him? In this country, even our poor are better taken care of then in many third world countries. Our leaders have been corrupt for a while,,,no matter what side they or you sit on. Do not the laws of this nation apply to them, whether it be a tax exempt organization miss using that status, or a republican or hard liner doing tax evasion. We as citizens of this great country must always keep our eyes and ears open, Yes I worry about a man in power who seems to act more like a child having the ability to decade war is he so chooses. We also have many people who worship celebrates. In what other country would Kim K be a hero??? There is much to fix in this country and it is high time we (the people) tell our elected officials that working together is not only what we expect from grown-ups, but also what we demand or they are out of a job. Maybe it is time to limit terms, pass laws to prevent funds to be taken from a general account and used for whatever. I was a banker in my last years and I think everyone should be required to go to classes that teach reconcilement of bank statements, budgeting, credit card compounding. Our national debt is out of control and we must fix the problems. I wish it was simple but it is not. (I am with you and loved the poem.

You know, I agree with you 100%. You voice many issues I agree with your views totally. I also believe the people of North Korea worship their leader out of fear and to stay alive. That's no way to live, and I pray for those people and all people that good happen to them. That's all I really want is good for all. We live in an unperfect world and it is rather childish of me to come across as thinking there are simple solutions that can fix everything. I know there aren't. But I wish there was. I wish everyday citisens ran our country that were'nt corrupt, but everything has spiraled out of control.

Hi, I love the sentiments of your poem, it has a lot of good advice in it. I feel it is choppy in parts, but the message is so good that I will give it five star rating.
Well done, Mary

Comment from Vijay Kumar V
True, it is man who created religion and not the vice versa. Hope we all live in peace and harmony. I loved this line a lot 'One less hungry child, one less baby who cries
For the sake of all children and their children too'
Every line is a masterpiece and has something to thiƱk and act.
Great work
Have a nice day
