   Clever, moving piece – to use the sing song, childlike form and pictures for such a serious message gives it extra power and poignancy I think. Great poem. xx

   Human race will never change. We will always have hate for another it is human nature in ourself that causes this. If man could only find the spiritual side of his life how much peace we all would have on this earth. But this truth to all nature. Even in our own family we have difference that causes bitterness between family members.

      I do like to think we are all capable of change and goodness and generosity. I suppose it is that hope that keeps me writing and believing I can change also.

   Very sad. Especially when it’s so very true.
