You can choose from the crops of unhappiness… <br />or you can unearth the joy from your heart. <br /> <br />You can choose to draw from your dark stormy life… <br />or believe that only rainbow's beauty follows rain. <br /> <br />You can choose to pollute the air you breathe… <br />or do no harm to the environs of human or all life form. <br /> <br />You can choose to produce foods by man’s means … <br />or allow it to be produced by nature’s teams. <br /> <br />You can choose to live in jealousy and hate or <br />live with love and you won’t have none of the above. <br /> <br />You can choose to make war <br />or you can make love instead... <br /> <br />You can choose to pluck the thorns… <br />or pick red, yellow, and pink roses, instead. <br /> <br />You deserve your world that <br />built brick by brick.<br /><br />Almedia Knight Oliver<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/we-live-in-the-world-we-build/
