The world as we know it, is not what it seems. No champagne wishes and caviar dreams. Respect has vanished for Mother Earth. The beauty of Life and all it's worth. Humility, Honesty, Integrity replaced. By Laziness, Greed, and negligent Waste. Lifetime warranties are a thing of the past. Nothing today is built to last. Out with the old, in with the new. The rich get richer, while the rest have no clue. Unfit parents, everywhere. Breed spoiled offspring who don't think or care. Work ethic poor. Technology plenty. But could one survive if the store shelves were empty? Political liars, as they smile and wave. To cheering fools they plan to enslave. From ignorant bliss to brainwashed and blind. We refuse to acknowledge the evil behind. Heads in the sand, we sit and wait. Then wonder why we're dealt this fate. Fight your fears. Let's hear your voice! The time has come to make a choice. Hiding will not make things better. We must rise and stand together. Use your oars to guide your boat. Lest tides determine where you float.
Each line really touched my heart. I appreciate the writer for composing such a beautiful heart touching poem.
