TO GET BACK TO LOVING


 “Oh, Lord, I used ta lead a Better life, much better Loved my Neighbors, friends, and wife. Please, Help me, Lord, I need ta make a change, Priorities I gotta Rearrange! Lord, help my heart be Grateful as can be, and make a patient, Kinder Man o' me! Ta be as wary as a serpent, Lord, and also be as harmless as a dove – Please, Help that practice git by me restored, and help me live my life with perfect love!”

LET'S SAVE THE WORLD!

Let's Save the World!
(a poem for kids)

So Many plants and animals are GONE. We Need ta Change our Ways, and Change 'em Fast! Dear Mother Nature's looking Weak... and Wan – this USING her the way we do can't Last! This Eatin' Meat, an' burnin' coal and oil, they're Things we're Needing Now and soon ta Quit. And Poisonin' the Water, Air, and Soil? How CRAzy Greed kin Make us Humans Git!
Just How are We these days deFINing Wealth? As pleasures, comforts, Gold, and Piles o' Cash? Our Lives dePend on Mother Nature's HEALTH! Why Turn her Lovely Bounty Inta Trash?

Yes, You and I and All of us must Change, and find more WHOLEsome Ways of Havin' Fun. Our Lives' Priorities let's rearrange… and Git this work o' world salvation Done!
