To sleep safe
How can we fix this broken world
Just how can we do what is right
To stop this urge to always fight
Wouldn't that be a glorious sight
Love each other with all our might
To sleep safe this and every night
With all the family all held tight
And you in my arms safely curled?

Oh yes.. how on earth do we fix this broken world.. no amount of gold will do.. if it keeps ending up in the wrong hands...
ReplyDelete"With all the family all held tight"...Only if we thought everyone on this planet as family. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteThat would be lovely indeed! Beautifully eloquent write, Robin!💖
ReplyDeleteThis tight little piece with end rhyme makes me feel that it is possible.
ReplyDeleteIt may be painful, but it does seem like it usually fixes itself. Hopefully that continues.
ReplyDeleteGood question "How do we fix this broken world"
ReplyDeleteA question that we have to keep asking
as we never should give up hope. Nice poem
These were my thoughts, too, Robin, on the prompt. If ever this world were more in need of fixing, it is now.
ReplyDeleteGreat message. Great rhyme. The first and last rhymes are like arms, holding this tight.
ReplyDeleteWishes, prayers and dreams--this piece is all of this --well said Robin!
ReplyDeleteSuch a quality of peacefulness to this.
ReplyDeleteSounds like the perfect recipe..
ReplyDeleteI think the human mind deserves a love letter every night to sleep tight.. and the letter naturally comes from our peaceful hearts!! Very nice lines, Robin...
ReplyDeleteThere seems to be few ways to fix this broken world. Loving one another is the best we can do, but it is not much of a way to protect us from the outside forces which sometimes seem insurmountable.
ReplyDeletewow...it is a bundle of hope and comfort...may it be so with everybody..!
ReplyDeleteSigh. Yes, that would be wonderful. And most of us want exactly that, so why does it go so wrong?
