All The Children Of Life.... Poem by RIC BASTASA

envy rages like
fire
burning every flower
in the field of
dreams

hatred floods every
house
killing everyone
not just dogs but
also children

when everything is
over
spread forgiveness
like a shower of
rain
to let all dust and
ash
go back to its home
of earth

love is sunshine
another cool breeze
that caresses all buds
and sprouts
of the trees and
seeds

green grass
silk seas
silver linings
golden horizons

here we are
starting all over again
all the children of
life....
