The Stain On Humanity 8/15/2005 10:50:03 AM
Read it and weep!
I watched the birds greedily feeding
on the toast I gave them
The wrens,bluejays.magpies all come
for their breakfast at different times
It amazed me how they became adjusted
to there own schedule knowing I would
put more out if they waited their turn
Bluejays first they are so bold they squawk
the others away
Wrens next, they get it in smaller crumbs, so
they don't have a hard time
Magpies last, they are daunted even by the
smallest birds, they take it in pieces, quickly
I sat on the porch this morning watching
and pondering Bhuwan's poem
"Song Of The Hungry One's
I couldn't help but feel guilty thinking of the
children starving while I fed birds
Yet, I do try to help with funds I have been
sending all my life,and prayer of course
Even as a child I gave my allowance to my
mom to send to starving children
(being a sweet mom she compensated;-)
Whose fault is it that there has always been
starving humanity?
Surely not Creator's who gave us life abundant
and told us how to live it
We have all our needs met,yet we don't meet
the needs of those who need it most
Isn't it the fault of greedy despots and tyrants
and the populace who allow them to lead us?
Isn't it the fault of our being too concerned
only with the glitz and glamour of life?
Isn't it the reason that we won't take the time
to learn of better ways
Because we concentrate more on the dollar
and what we want, not what we need
The oh's and ah's and "how sads" last a few
moments, then it's back to the same old
The hypocrisy of the lives we humans live is
sometimes too overwheming...
In fact some problems,are so over-whelming,
we blank them out in order to survive
That is not the answer, but the answer is too hard
for the greedy power people
The answer is to learn of Creator's plan and follow it!
This the bulk of humanity refuses to do!
Bitching, moaning, and blaming others is far easier!
There are those like Bhuwan Thapaliya, who spend there
lives helping the poor,hoping and praying for change
to come about. It could if enough felt the same way,
sadly they don't...The stain on humanity grows larger
each day...
