We Need To Change

How people fight and fume Over everything around! How adults scream and shout For everything they find! Even brothers bear ill-wills And start a family-feud; Even sisters covet each other On many things in life! And neighbors do not maintain peace Across the wall and line-of-control; And nations suspect the next And are wary of all things one does; The world is more intolerant And peace is an elusive star! Has science to blame and scientists Who put God in the background? Has lack of faith and trust, the cause of all turmoil? Has man turned immoral and materialistic, Bringing upon him this curse? Have sense of values eroded And dignity of life ignored? Money has made life better; But money has brought in ills as well; Money works both good and bad things Our experience does tell! Change of heart and mind of man For better is what we need; Love of humanity and downtrodden Should be the guiding light. Let leaders think of the living God, And God choose good souls to lead! Let’s pray to God most fervently That blessings rain on earth! Copyright by Dr John Celes 2-1-2009
