The Words of Poets I wish to speak and draw your ear And I will pray that you may hear These simple words of one so humble I’ll say it plain that I don’t stumble We must use our gift of rhyme In this sad and sinful time We must speak out and make it clear We must make the people hear We must not falter but be strong Speak out together when we see wrong Somehow link our words and verse Remaining silent is a curse There are children dead and dying Old people alone and crying Son and daughters that we cherish By drugs and guns we watch them perish Poets know words of love and care But what's it matter if we don’t share My fellow poets lets begin the race To make this world a better place Send a card, email or letter We will sort it out together We will use our words to stand For the better good of man jingler@fastmail.fm |

I really like your thoughts here. Our words can make a difference if we share them with the world. |

 (big hugggsssssss) Oh Dillard, this is so very sad, sweet friend, my heart goes out to all those in need of love right now and I wish I could do so much more but I vow to do all I can! (sigh) This is a powerful message, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Dillard, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

You have it right, that we can make a difference; it is all in how we band together, and come to be heard. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this. |

Poets know words of love and care But what's it matter if we don’t share My fellow poets lets begin the race To make this world a better place ============================ Can't think of a more enjoyable to make sure the voices are heard. Nice to see someone out to make the world a better place. Welcome to Passions. BTW...left an answer to your inquiry on my post "Orange Essence" Enjoyed the read and will look forward to more. |
