The Eyes Of The World Poem by Barbara Curtis

The Eyes Of The World



The world is watching, what she sees
makes her sad
All this greed, hate and jealousy is
so very bad
There is so much deception
lies and abuse
It's time that we stopped this
it's serving no use
Our cultures all wrong we can't
live in peace
We are so self obsessed and this really
must cease
The fighting and wars are ruining
this place
she's tired of the hate, thinks is just
a disgrace
We take what we want with no thought
or remorse
All the governments do it, it's not yours
it's ours
She knows there is hope, but when will
we start
We need to open our eyes and come
out of the dark.

I couldn't have put it better Barbara. As St Paul said to Timothy - 'The love of money is the root of all evil' - and I'm no bible-basher but it's true. Greed is the cause of most of the world's misery.
