Potential poems/rhymes for modern day life & living, coffee table book.
Turn on the news and see what we see,
headline after headline the mood bothers me.

Nation against Nation, crime upon crime,
when will it be over, this fight in our time.
For the next generation, sort this we must,
in our lifetime, find faith and trust.

Choice in our leaders, united we stand,
we need to work hard to protect this land.
Lay down our arms, nuclear and all,
the one that moves first, is bound to stand tall.

History repeated, Year after Year,
all this poison, polluting our air.
Nothing is gained from turmoil and woe,
there's nowhere to hide, where would we go.

Technology advancing on the Human brain,
not moving forward when it causes such pain.
Use all the gadgets to learn and teach,
without any brooding or a long drawn out speech.

Help is needed for the Human race.
Let's all act as one, with dignity and grace.
