A World of Taboo.

Today I sat out in the sun enjoying the Sun and Peacefulness of my garden, as Summer graced my day… I am always sending out my gratitude and thanks to the Universe for all I have in my life.

Many around our world are not so fortunate, and my thoughts turned to all those Nations  caught up with wars as innocents die, while just as many turn a blind eye.

I thought of those in other places, where they starve for lack of food and water..And my thoughts too went to the recent insane shootings in the USA. This world has so much turmoil and conflict. And yet here I was surrounded by Peace!..

I thought how many young children are having to fend for themselves as they are orphaned or abandoned around our world, their plights go unheard and unnoticed. And my heart wept in silent tears for all the Children of our World.. So out came my note book and pen… as I wrote this poem today.. As I thought how lucky we are…. and how many Children of our world Suffer.. And all of them need our Love..

The Time for Children

Mellow days lasing in the Sun

With gentle breeze Summer’s just begun

With meadow fields, and flowers wild

I sit with memories of a child.

Climbing hills and running fast

A childhood day forever lasts

Of tastes and smells and smiles of glee

If only a child we all could be.

To see the Earth with eyes anew

And trust the world not to be taboo

Where danger lurks around every bend

I wish the Universe a child could send

To show us where our race went wrong,

And bring back the Spirit of innocence song

Where children laughed and were unafraid

To respect and care throughout our days

But sadly we seem to have lost our way

Where no one listens to words we say

Respect is forfeited only for Gold

And Human life is bought and sold

And as mellow as my day is here in the Sun

I know of others sorrow because of the Gun

As innocent blood is spilled on ground

While my heart weeps in the silence of sound

Where are our hearts? Where have they gone?

What happened to our Children that grew up with Gun?

Enjoy every moment before it’s too late

Teach only love and let go of the hate

Remember the Children they are our Future too

And all are special including you

So nurture our Children and show them the way

Teach them to Love, and respect everyday

So as they grow older they won’t be so sad,

Knowing life dealt them harshness in a world that turned bad.

And someday they may sit and reflect as I do

On a World full of love instead of taboo.
