Is it too late?

Phyllis Rogers

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?

I'm a married retired nurse living on beautiful Lake Palestine in the East Texas piney woods. I seek to deepen my walk with the Lord. I have 5 dogs and two pair of Mandarin ducks, one male and two female Wood ducks. They are all a source of great pleasure. I love growing vegetables, fruits and florals. I spent the first 26 years of my life in the Houston area. The concrete and traffic took its toll and I moved to East Texas and have lived a rural existence since. I have always written as a means of expression throughout my life since I was in elementary school. It is something I've always had to do. My brain just works that way. It travels all the time, by land or sea or air it's always traveling.
