THE DARK SIDE OF THE WORLD AND THE BRIGHT SIDE OF IT
A short poem for this world
The birds are singing
The flowers are blooming.
The sun is shining
What a wonderful day
It's time to wake up.
I go to the bathroom and wash my face
Dry my face with a towel
And start my day
Make a hot coffee to make me awake
Hot omelet and bacon is on my plate
I open the TV and watch the news
I'm in shock what I've seen as I'm watching the news
Dishonest politics,
Comes and goes like the wind.
No one knows where it's going,
Or where it began.
The economy is going low
prices are hiking
We're all in debt
we're spending more than we make
and we can't afford to cope!
The price is hiking up but the economy's going low
People starving to death and thirst.
The government should know
There's a war going on around the world, all over the place
Night and day
A pandemic turns endemic
Never ends
Wealth is being created and hoarded, while the rest of us suffer
Rich people getting rich, poor people getting poor
People are fighting for their rights.
People are struggling to live in peace and harmony
While watching this news I am thinking
How cruel this world could be
But there is nothing we can do
It's destiny
I think it's time for us to be grateful for what we have.
We have a home
We have food on our table and a roof over our head.
We have clothes on our back and shoes on our feet.
We are lucky
I know that sometimes life gets hard
But you don't need to complain about it
because someone else has it worse than you do!
We should value what we have and don't forget to thank up above.
