Sonnet: The World Has Aplenty

The earth has place for more people to live; Its trees have wood for more houses to build; Its soil can generate more food and give; There isn’t a dearth of good souls for a guild. The rivers have fresh-water plentiful; The earth has much reserve of oil and ore; If peace prevails, earth looks so beautiful; The rich nations cannot the poor ignore. The money/ food wastage can millions feed; Each man must love his neighbor honestly; The brotherhood of nations is the need; The human race is one and one must be! Wake up humans! There is no time to waste; Let not your greed enslave others in haste! 6-2-2001
