Earth's Last Good-bye by Donna Wallace
Fighting for this Nation
In the battle of the brave
Will it be your son or mine
We visit in his grave.
Starting a war is easy
Small change is the cost
But the price rages higher
With every human loss.
Separation soon divides
Our Country's citizens
Standing firm on either side
Distancing from friends.
And the tension multiplies
With every news report
Tempers flare out of control
Loving thoughts depart.
The air so full of hatred
No oxygen to breathe
Out thoughts manifesting
Becoming our reality.
We all become the victims
Losers line both sides
No soldier comes whole whole
No brave warrior survives.
Peace never had a chance
Our minds empowered war
God's children no long United
As we were Created for.
Prayers may change the outcome
Love can change our fate
But do we care enough to try
Or will we learn too late?
Will a miracle appear at dawn
Our enemy turn friend
Or Will our Nation mourn
The beginning of its end.
Will Lady Liberty cry a tear
Her torch flicker, dim, then die
Will God be crying, watching us
When Earth says its last Good-bye....
Love, Light, and Peace
