Blue Planet

Come with us, let the power of love command,
come with us, let all join from every land,
come with us, let all hate fall from your heart
come with us, let us all make that new start.

Time has long been wasted, by so many fights,
no more angst is needed and no more sleepless nights,
bring a fresh view to proceedings, share evenly and true,
not just a share of harvests, but a share of workload too.
 
This world has been our host now, for many many years,
and if it were to speak to us, could it choke back the tears?
The time will be coming shortly, for man to win or lose,
this host we all depend on, may suddenly refuse,
to give us time to mend our ways and be a brotherhood,
for as we take too much from it, it should be understood,
that changes will be happening as our world is torn,
with weather cycles changing, bringing hunger every dawn.
 
We have the means to reason, just what we must now do,
to stop the crisis growing and for real love to renew,
not just broken bonds of brotherhood,
but old bonds with this blue planet too...

Just get down from the pulpit and write some poetry. No one's going to argue with the sentiments.
