Sonnet 34 Why Not? Poem by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares

Why not find more ways to stop the hurting
And share all those delights of brotherhood?
We can knead muscles or more bread for food
Not fires with which peace is not conforming.

Why do not we start for once assorting
The good and evil with a wisdom hood
Placing happiness where innocence stood
And track space dreams that are reasuring?

Things that please and grow with our faith and care
In front of wars and hate are almost rare
And to live in fear we call being smart.
Why not render another chance to reason?
It would not be to our mind a treason
And stars would come to give our love a start.
