One philosopher’s opinion…

If I am to die when the world ends,

Then I want to do it around my friends,

Will I be one of the few that transcends?

Or will I be one of the many that cannot make amends…?

So many movies and books speaking of the end of the world,

Will our tiny planet earth be into the void hurled?

Or will we possess the ability to get past our recent troubles?

Hopefully then we will find ourselves as part of a new world,

Therein we can for all to see and hear about our planet, herald…

Let us do what ever it is we can,

Make us more compassionate to our fellow man,

Help those in need, all of our planets living creatures,

Flora and fauna alike, all need our compassion,

We can start now by being the world’s teachers…
