In this world where some people <br />have turned their backs on beauty, <br />on the right to human dignity, <br />on the very breath of life itself, <br />there are men and women of peace and vision <br />who exhort us to hear the music of the spheres, <br />to feel true heavenly light <br />in the renewal of Earth's daily light, <br />to sense divinity in the mysterious darkness <br />upon us every night, <br />the moon above a guiding light. <br /> <br />The people who stand deaf and blind <br />to the destruction they rain, <br />unaware it shall backfire <br />on their own kind- <br />to them a message: <br /> <br />smell the flowers <br />walk the shores <br />undress beautiful women <br />fill your hearts with humbling sights <br />read the ancient poets <br />take a deep breath for the gift of life <br />STOP THE KILLINGS<br /><br />Ronald Jones<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-poem-for-our-times/
