A Picnic At Poets Rally Week 50 (Peace of Patience)



The world is small
when people stand tall;
The world is big
If anger/wars are the ones to dig;
The world is a family
If everyone strives for harmony;
The world is beautiful
If members are respectful;
As challenges/issues continue threading life’s elegance,
WE must spread hope, faith, and peace of patience!

You know what is the most amazing thing in your poems? The simplicity, which directly connects with the reader.

Nice thoughts indeed. :)

Yes indeed. Gandhi said 'I we are to really tackle ending all war, we must first begin with the children'
He is so right, if every child were to grow without thinking in terms of hatred, race and never-ending 'I want's the world could help cure itself.
Lovely prose.

I like this one--though I found the "/" choices to be distracting. Might just be my ADD though :P

Poetry and Icecream said...

Great words of wisdom here. Well written! (May I be bold though and say that I also found the "/" choices distracting. I think it would have flowed better without them.) A very good message :)

...The world is a family
If everyone strives for harmony;
The world is beautiful
If members are encouraging/respectful

Nice ending to a message and reminder for each of us. It must begin with us; creating a ripple effect that spreads from the center.
