Loving Is Easy…It’s Hating That Is Hard

Poem Artwork

Loving Is Easy…It’s Hating That Is Hard

 

I stand on a mountain viewing a sea of unrest.

I watch brother kill brother in a world of protest.

I see the anger; I feel the animosity beneath my feet.

I understand not as I watch civility and love retreat.

Thus now stand by me on the mountain-

Where hating is hard and loving is easy.

Excellent Allen..you have said it so well...John Lennon's world of Love and Peace is still so far away... a world where All We Need Is Love...We can still Imagine however...
Hugs, Diana..

It takes people decades of patience,toiling,sweat,tears to break down, the degree of breakage varies from people to people.Noone can say for sure the final breaking point.Rulers and politicians must learn from history unless history would make them poor student and when they fail and fall, how mighty would be the fall.Poverty and hardship foster hatred.Watch, when people suffer too long, hatred is not faraway.

Remarkable poem, so well expressed.
I struggle as I watch too. When the pain costs so unbearably much, why doesn't everyone want peace...
Blessings,
Christine

I understand not, as I watch civility and love retreat.

Neither do I.
