Is it about politics, religion or war
The chattering of squirrels
In a game of exhortation supreme
Calling lemmings to follow ?
Is respectability lost
Amid minds preening themselves
While hearing only clattering
When opposing voices disagree?
Can there be no marriage,
No union on any echelon,
Since we lost Lennon
Our beloved John?
He imagined and asked us to
Imagine with him…..Peace.
It seems we’ve forgotten to say the least.
Who is out there…..anyone?
Who is out there to say
Enough is enough?
Our house is divided
Can it still stand?
Will civil war breakout again?
I implore we all take a long hard look
Start with ourselves
Reach out with love
Find common ground
Plant seeds of communion
Live together again.
Is it too late?
