Share These Smiles

Rating: 4.7


It's a kind of crazy world
Out there
Right now
A pandemic
That is changing our world

The daily death toll is rising
The world is crying
Crazy enough
People are joining forces

People are caring
They are listening
Halting their lives
For this world to heal

People now realizing
That there is more in life
Than materials
Life itself
Is what matters

Rainbows are popping up
All over our world
It is the children
Who bring smiles to us all

Share these smiles
Pray for the ill
After all this sadness
We must remember

Just what
Is really important
To us all.

King of Crazy world has attacked towards us with epidemic behavior. Corona has brought up death of children and old men. The whole world is crying in agony. Rainbows are popping up and people are realizing the truth. All have started offering prayer. Only God can help you. This poem is excellently and brilliantly penned to bring social awareness...10

An honest portrayal of the pandemic Corona devastation pervading the world. 'That there is more in life Than materials' - true! A stark realization!

I live very much along the line of the hopes you expressed here: that also after this, we will all remember what is really important to us! Deep inside, I am, already for years now, imagining that soon a world-wide kindness revolution will happen, a wisdom revolution. While these are indeed extremely challenging times, it would be nice if in the end it leads to a world filled with kindness and wisdom.

This is a beautiful poem, Lyn. It is truly mind boggling how the world was brought to a halt. If last year people would have predicted something like that, anyone would have thought they were crazy. And yet it happened. (continued below)
