When The World Seems Torn Apart, It’s Time to Change Our Ways!

Every day the news worsens, and it seems as if the world is being torn apart.

It’s as though everyone is angry, letting hate flow like liquids from our hearts.

I don’t believe this craziness is permanent, and we can and will see a better day,

If we let the gap between us narrow inch by inch and change the words we say.

Instead of judgmental discourse with its negative and unproductive feedback,

Let us find words that highlight all of our positives and not just what we lack.

When we fail to acknowledge the good that everyone brings to the table,

People tend to fall through the cracks, and everyone’s lives seem unstable.

But, if we would spend energy ensuring everyone food to eat and a home,

Then, we will have peace on earth this holiday season and for years to come.
