This world is a mess, <br />You see much sadness, <br />As you walk through the streets, <br />And see the fate that we keep, <br />People going hungry, <br />Children are crying, <br />Strangers are fighting, <br />Pain and despair, <br />Breath in the now polluted air, <br />And only one thing, <br />Keeps us going ahead, <br />The spark of life, <br />The kindeling flame, <br />The one thing that, <br />Will never fade, <br />For as long as it is, <br />In one persons heart, <br />It will grow, <br />Like a wildfire, <br />We look up and pray, <br />For a better day, <br />The one thing that we need, <br />To cope with the insanity, <br />The thing that makes us, <br />Go up that steep slope, <br />Our kindeling flame, <br />Our much beloved hope.<br /><br />Kelly Aragon<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/our-kindeling-flame/
