The world today is not what it was yesterday,
Some may say that this new day is more beautiful than the last,
Others that it is no different if not worse.
With AIDS and WAR and CANCER plaguing the world as they do,
I say that it could be so much better.
Love and Joy and Beauty,
Great things that once meant so much to so many,
Now all but a near forgotten memory.
While still found, no one shares such precious things,
Just too caught up in their own fantasies,
To care to share what was once so abundant.
So this… this is my cry for help.
My plea to the people of this world,
To show your neighbor that they are loved,
For they are your brothers and sisters in humanity.
Share the joy of a laugh, a smile, a good joke.
For those are of the few things that still shine true.
And last but not least...
Share your beauty with the world,
In whatever form that it may be.
For the world is not what it was yesterday,
And it could use all the help that it can get.
