Each One. Reach One. Teach One! .. Poem by R.H. Peppers

I was once asked a question:

How things can change to suit MY ‘right’ in society? ? ? oO

My response:

If at all possible of this not sounding strange..
..be it my will this present state remain the same..

Hmmm..

..maybe that was worded wrong..

..i say let it be what it is..

For one may wish to change the direction of a storm..
But is it better that it tear down the neighbor's picket fence?

If I asked for peace would it squelch one’s grief…. when tragedy knocks on the door?

..would not said peace with such grief be numbing and stump that one’s potential growth?

………not saying that I know………. it’s just a question..

Could one truly know pleasure… without having known the taste of pain?

What is life if it’s not to be conditioned by each of the four seasons?

Should I ask that the sun shine bright every day just for me? ..

..if this fondest wish of mine were to come true..
would crops still grow on a farm..of which prevents me and my family from starving?

..what could I ask to change that will not have an adverse affect? ? ?

We have heard this before.. the rich and the poor..
…okay lets reset the game..and even the score…

***DAMN***

…wish I could see this as harmony like so many others…
…and fall in love with the feeling before reality steps in..
…for we each are unique.. as is life..

Rich. Poor matters not….

…one inclined to make poor decisions will again dig a deep hole
…one with focus and determination will again be worth one’s weight in gold

These words and scenarios are trivial.. common place.. nothing new under the sun..

How things can change to suit MY ‘right’ in society? ? ? oO

……will be on display through the ink of my Pen and passion of my Spirit’s Tribal Drum....

…I and my follow Brother and Sister poets steering clear of the controls of brain dead media…

…as I see it
..we are the freest birds when in flight..

..where there is dark let us with skill cast the brightest of lights..
..we are not of the controlled like music. tv and radio..

..speak bold! ..trust in the Lord..or yourself if that be your preferred choice..

..can’t pretend to have the answer.. I simply believe in what and who we are…

EACH ONE. REACH ONE. TEACH ONE.

***allow your light to shine near and far***
