Perhaps It's Time Poem by Jim Yerman

Perhaps It's Time

Rating: 5.0


Although it may be difficult sometimes
in this world I'm trying to create...
I will not acknowledge your anger with anger...
I will not return your hate...with hate.

If you choose to bully me
I will not bully back.
Nor will I cower in the face of fear
for courage...I do not lack.

I believe in human rights
the rights of everyone to be free
and I gladly lend my voice to the chorus
of peace and harmony.

Hate has tried to rule the world
from every demagogue to tsar.
When you take a look at history...
how's that worked out so far?

So although it may be difficult sometimes
in this world I'm trying to enhance...
I will return your hate with love...
it's the only way peace has chance!
