Everybody Wins
It seems nothing requires proof
And all we ever do is fight
We have forfeited any truth
In the need to be always right
History holds great compromise
When our fears are truly real
So, it comes as a big surprise
When our fears are all we feel
Brothers and sisters are we all
And yet, so widely unrelated
In the rush to our own tribe’s call
We leave all others to be ill-fated
Do we not share this perfect pearl
Our planet around the sun spins
If we see it as just one world
Then surely everybody wins

Ah, yes! If we could only treat this Earth as home for one and all, without borders, countries, ideologies, religion and anything that will cause a distraction from our true path, the search for happiness… Beautiful poem my brother!
Thank you, brother! It is okay to hope and dream for such a place.
You’re very welcome my brother!
Even within my own tribe, all we ever do is fight!. Hopefully I can get them to read your poem!
Thank you, Geoff!
Every close-minded individual needs to read this piece, Brad. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results.
Thanks, Pete! One of the hardest things to change in this world is a closed mind.
