Greed Poem by steph smith

From mans beginnings to present day
our quest for more has led the way
in our rush for greater things, we do not see the hurt we bring
the lives that fall, the pain they bear
why can we not see them there
if love and time were spread around
our quest for more would soon die down
a better life we all would lead
a little more love, a little less greed
hold out your hands and be a friend
don't shun and mock or try to offend
if all our neighbours pulled together
we could lend a hand and live forever.........IN PEACE
