Inspiring, Motivating, Encouraging…

There is joy, in the Coffee Shop Land –
Along beautiful streets, paved with gold, and
Homes vibrantly colorful & graciously white.
There is joy in the coffee shop land!
.
All the while,
.
Behind mighty gates, worth as much as our house,
Smiles are taken off like coats, and hanged…
There is pain… everywhere…
There is pain, in the Coffee Shop Land.
.
.
Living in these mighty houses
Warm & sheltered from the rain
We spend precious moments striving
… for financial gain…
.
Then, we spend & waste, again
.
There’s not much we need,
There’s so much we want…
Many Lives are typed by strangers
In a fancy, heavy font…
.
We take so much space on Earth
Like the world’s page isn’t theirs
It belongs to us alone!
Let’s throw them a bone
.
In this land, if a man can’t hear,
a custom device is placed in his ear –
It restores the sense of sound.
So why there, on the other hand,
Cries for help are drowned out?
It’s a not so privileged land.
.
So why don’t we smile?
As much as we could…
We have stored a lot of wealth
Often, much more than we should…
.
Yes, the world is what it is
And we are what we are…
It takes one unselfish life –
Only One to raise the bar.
.
So, whose life will it be?
So, who is the One?
…
ONE needs to pray, and do what ONE can
Day after day – ONE step at a time…
…
Too many sorrowful tongues fall upon too many deaf ears
Too many listen to voices designed for war and not peace…
…
Too many eyes stay widely shut, too few remain wide open
Too many dreams, too many lives have now been killed & aborted.
…
Too many painful words too many people are speaking
In too many broken homes too many children are living,
…
Too many do not even try because it takes ‘too much’ to make it
Rather than learn from the best – they stay busy envying & hating…
…
Is it far more tragic that too many die?
…Or that far too many do not have a life?
…
How many answers can one receive when so many questions arise?
Too many pages provide for so many – waaay too many whys…
…
Figuring out too many things consumes too many years;
Fixing one’s gaze on too many ‘too manys’
Creates too many tears & fears…
…
There sure seem to be too many truths, yet
Worth mentioning is the following one:
ONE needs to pray, and do what ONE can
Day after day – ONE step at a time… 🙂
