Rose red, Peach pink, Golden sun, Earth Brown

Rose red

Peach pink

Shining like the sun

Wolf pelt

Starshine

High and sweet

Low and husky

Dimple chin

Smile big

Laugh like joy has come for good

Joy is wonderful

Golden sun

Earth brown

Wit as wry as rye

Laugh at everything with joy

Smile big

Like laughing joy

Is only half the story

Brush strokes on paper

Make black marks

Of friends and joy

Write a story

Half the story

Laugh the other half

Joy is sweet

Joy is kind

Joy is friends old and new

And you

Golden sun

Earth brown

Rye and wry

Are joy and kind

Together is my fondest wish

Life is kind

But you are better

Make laugh today

The Big Picture

I admit that wars,
Are sometimes a necessity,
But can't we try,
To save more lives?

There are so many people,

In this world of ours,

Who just can’t see the big picture.

So many lives lost,

In so many wars,

Because leaders couldn't see the big picture,

They fought for petty causes,

That ended up with their untimely ends,

But many lives could have been saved,

If they could have seen the big picture.

Wars are a terrible thing,
Life would be better without them.
