Why is the World dark,gloomy and sad
When all around is Spring-like air?
Why wait for darkened doom
When Kiddies laugh, then someone
Stops, for time of day,
And show they care
Come what may?
When all around the Worlds’ gone mad
Through grief, or greed?
Why wait for life to pass you by
When all is said and done?
Now take another look, and stare
Away from your own soul?
There’s always someone far worse off
Than in your world, full of dread!
Go take a look around, you’ll see
Those budding scents, creeping through
The earth below, showing us
The way to go.
On with life, no matter what.
If Nature grows, through thick and thin
Who are we to grieve a doom?
Why wait for chance to knock?
If only everyone who needs
Would open eyes to take a look,
And stare?
The World, far greater be
A place for all to live
And Care!
