I love being light hearted in my poems. I like to make offer a little philosophy. Writing about people and getting them to smile is an absolute joy. So writing this today is tough and necessary at the same time.
An unaccepting bias strikes again on the news.
No one ever listens in their one sided views.
The words that this country was founded on don’t belong to a select few.
Those seeking attention don’t listen when they only have a one sided view.
The freedom of speech they demand in turn won’t be extended to others.
Death and violence occurs leaving broken families and grieving mothers.
Leaders and leadership is needed on so many levels to offer hope again.
Only when we all take responsibility, can we no longer ask when.
