    LOVE WITHOUT THE HATE

     

    Faces, faces everywhere.

    Smiling, frowning, laughing, crying.

    Some that won't look

    and some that glare

     

    People, people everywhere.

    All shapes, sizes and color.

    Tall, short, big and small

    red, brown, black and white

     

    All different, all unique.

    God loves us all

    from the lowest valley

    to the highest peak

     

    So why is there hate in your heart?

    Why can't you love the ones around you?

    Is it fear? confusion?

    or just plain ignorance that keeps you

    from loving the one next to you?

     

    Next time your on a train, bus or plane

    look to your neighbor and say "HELLO"

    You might find a friend

    in the midst of the hate.

    all you need is love? sounds like John Lennon, who happens to be my hero. Great poem, vital message, keep the message alive.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
