We are all meant to be in this world
The rich and the poor,
The beauties and ugly ducklings,
The actors and actresses,
The writers and the readers,
The rivers and lakes,
The waterfalls and waterholes,
The beaches and the seas,
The rhinos and elephants,
Dogs and cats,
We are all meant to be in this world .
Let us co-exist.
We are proud to have earth as our common home.
Let us spare it from climate change.
As sweet as earth.
We take pride to be here.
Whether on borrowed time or forever,
Let us co-exist for now.
Let us spare these dogs and cats from abuse.
Let us spare these elephants and rhinos from poachers.
Let us spare these rivers and mountains from destruction.
Let's give these actors and actresses a chance to be heard.
Let's give these writers a chance to inform and entertain.
Let's give these readers a chance to enjoy the written word.
Spare the small fish from the jaws of the sharks.
Give these rich people a chance to create more wealth.
For the poor can be guaranteed employment,
Walk back and forth in these beaches,
In your bikinis, for it is your right to do so,
We are all meant to walk this earth.
Let's co-exist.
Bask in these sunny beaches without fear,
For the sun is God given,
We are all meant to be beneficiaries.
Let's co-exist.
Let us have these beach parties for it is our right to be happy.
Let us have wind energy from these seas,
For it is the only way to go green,
Let's co-exist, animals and man.
Nature and man,
Men and women,
Boys and girls,
We are all meant to be in this wonderful world.
Peace be with you
William
Excellent poetry. If only we could all co-exist in peace and harmony.
