Citizen Of The World

With each new morning I watch as the sun rises Joining the blue sky In a beautiful celebration Clearly reflecting The spectra on Earth The flowers dance With great joy And a new day is born! The leaves on the trees Shake in merriment Magical colors Dancing In the breeze Blending hues on the horizon While the birds Happily chirp and sing! As the world awakens With new challenges Thoughts and ideas Wait to be uncovered New life is warmly Welcomed with A baby's first cry Fed and safely kept In his mother's arms! Somewhere out there In this vast world are Hungry children and People with nothing To eat or shoes to Put on their feet Wounds awaiting To be healed Their struggle unknown And often concealed! I speak the language Of love, heartbroken Witnessing the world Falling apart slowly! The beauty of life lies Within itself and I as A Citizen of the World I pray to the Lord for Humanity's sake!
