PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I’m finding it very difficult of late…

to keep love in my heart…when I’m surrounded by so much hate.

And therein lies the evil…the malevolence of hate….

It’s sole purpose is to trample love…as more hate it generates.

But I’m determined not to let that happen to me!

Determined that hate will never be my fate!

And I will continue to love in life…everything you haters hate.

I will do my best to love every person as each day begins…

no matter their sex, their gender, their religion…or the color of their skin.

I shall always love diversity…and the beautiful way our varied lives have intertwined.

I will love you and whatever letter or label you give yourself as long as you are kind.

I will love the Earth and all her creations…

as much as I love any woman, child or man….

and I pledge to treat you all with kindness and respect

and walk as gently and as softly around you as I can.

I don’t love our history…but I know we must study the mistakes we’ve made

who we were and where we’ve been….

If we don’t, as witnessed in this day and age,

we will make those same mistakes again.

You may call me names…turn your hate on me….

but your hate-speech will never make this country great…

and it will never stop me from loving all the many things you hate.

Besides…there is twist to your hate 

that I find i quite ironically clever

Because of all your hate 

there are so many people in this world

who need my love now….more than ever
