Peace and friendship
Love and respect
When did these become
Such foreign concepts
Helping others
Selfless deeds
Meeting everyone’s
Basic needs
A roof over their head
A place to sleep
Warm clothes
And food to eat
But now it’s money
People care about
Lining their pockets
And filling their wallets
Putting own wants
Before others’ needs
Selfish actions
Insatiable greed
When did these cease to be
Foreign concepts

I agree… We certainly need to think about these things. Society is becoming so “Me-Myself-&-I”…
Beautifully penned… thanks for sharing 🙂
