It sounds so easy, doesn't it, to just stop, stop, and hear the pain in the voice and experience of another. And yet, the closed mind seals the ears from hearing, the eyes from seeing, the heart from feeling. It is the responsibility of everyone who wants to see peace, to leave a world to our kids where they can safely sleep in their beds and sit at their desks, and breathe clean air, to smile and play and love, to listen without judgment, to act with compassion. Shall we start a revolution?

Agreed.

Our Only World

This blue green orb our only world

A world we sorely need to share

All the land and all the love

All the pain and sorrow

So we are gathered here

To come together as one

On this precious home

our only world

Squall clouds are rolling

Bitter winds are hailimg

Rash kings are warring

And sirens are wailing

On this blue green orb

our only world

Glaciers are melting

Countries are drying

Grain fields are roasting

And stomachs they are cryimg

On this precious home

our only world

If we don't do something

We will be left with nothing

Would it not be better

To do something?

On

This blue green orb our only world

A world we need to share

All the land and all the love

All the pain and sorrow

We are gathered here

To come together as one

On this precious home

our only world
