| This is the poetry page I have added to my site. I have not taken time to sit and write poetry, therefore, I am gracing my pages with poetry that has inspired me and touched my heart and soul, with "credit" given where it is due. Susan Polis Schutz wrote the poetry. She gives away her literature entitled: One World One Heart to anyone who requests a copy. I requested some and got it in bulk. I have distributed some of it to my family members. I have tons left. So, if you feel you would like a copy of this booklet, email me and let me know. All I ask is you pay postage. Enjoy. |

| INTRODUCTION:
We all hear the same sounds. We look up and see the same sky. We cry the same tears. Our feelings and emotions are the same. All mothers are sisters. All fathers are brothers. All children are one. Yet there is hate. There is violence. There is intolerance. There is confusion among people. We don't try hard enough to understand each other. We don't seem to realize that we all have the same basic needs, no matter who we are or what part of the world we come from. We must understand the differences among us and celebrate the sameness. We must make the world a place where love and friendship dominate our hearts. Equality, respect, compassion and kindness must guide our actions. Only then will we all be able to peacefully and lovingly live the life we each choose. |

One Sun One World One Heart We need to feel more to understand others We need to love more to be loved back We need to cry more to cleanse ourselves We need to laugh more to enjoy ourselves We need to be honest and fair when interacting with people We need to establish a strong ethical basis as a way of life We need to see more than our own fantasies We need to hear more and listen to the needs of others We need to give more and own less We need to realize the importance of the family as a backbone to stability We need to look more and realize that we are not so diffeernt from one another We need to create a world where we can trust one another We need to create a world where we can all peacefully live the life we choose. We all cry the same tears tears of fright tears of sadness tears of loss tears of frustration tears of disappointment tears of loneliness Lands are flooded with our tears We need one another's kindness, cooperation, trust and respect to survive. We must talk until there are no more words We must explain until everything is understood We must be honest until nothing is hidden We must listen until everything has been said We must question so that we know why We must be fair so that everyone's basic needs are met If there is no communication there will be no bond If there is no bond there will be no friendship |
