Where is the Peace and Love?

Wars and rumours of wars

atrocities, hate and fear

where are we heading

where will it end?

Fear begets fear,

hate breeds hate.

Why can’t mankind live together,

side by side with respect and tolerance.

why can’t he help build, repair, teach,

inspire and love.

Why does he so often take, covet,

despise and destroy,

and why does this happen so often

in the name of God?

God does not want this,

God is not delighting in this suffering in his name.

How could he support this?

He cries out seeing the pain.

Stop, think, be brave,

stand up for love, for peace for tolerance,

for what is right.

Let a true loving God be your light,

your inspiration.

Reject all organized religions that spread this disease of bigotry.

Search in your heart,

listen to your inner soul,

you know this has to stop.....

For this beautiful world is doomed to a future of destruction,

fear, hatred, death and disease

if we all stop loving our brothers.

But it can be done,

it can be saved,

if enough people desire it for mankind,

for man IS kind....at heart
