PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

If we were created, as I believe we were created, to help anyone in need

why is there so much cupidity…so much avarice and greed?

If we were created, as I believe we were created to love and not to hate…why is our world filled with so much animus…why do we discriminate?

If we were created, as I believe we were seated to heal…not to harm

why when there are disagreements do we choose to fight and take up arms?

If we were created, as I believe we were created, to build…not to destroy

why are there wars where we drop bombs on little girls and boys.

Helping those in need…

Loving…not hating

Healing…doing no harm…

Building…not destroying

Are these simply concepts that have become outdated…

or

Have so many of us simply forgotten why we were created?
