The World Is Not So Bad And Unkind Poem by The Original Tom Maxwell

We live in A world of bad thoughts today,
We accept people are satisfied, when they have nothing to say.

There are many helpful, generous actions, that happen all of the time,
From the news media, to daily conversations, the worst is the subject,
In everyone's mind.

The people that announce the weather, A daily number game,
Thirty per cent chance of rain, why not seventy per cent, it won't,
They get paid the same.

We know we will die, not the time or way,
If an investigation, finds alcohol or drugs, they are sure that was the
cause, how do they know, it could have just been that person's day.

Actually, this world is not so bad, and unkind,
It's the way, ideas, and words are presented,
To make us think, it is getting worse all the time.
