We reach for the stars
And strive not to hit London
Don't be like Von Braun

Don't be like Von Braun
who put a man on the moon
with his bloody hands.

With his bloody hands
A doctor or a soldier
May save a new life.

Nice turn, Buteo!

May, save a new life;
June, help out an old one. Both
Are part of the world.

Is part of the world
Sinking into ignorance?
Let reason prevail

Let reason prevail
Add empathy, mix them well,
and don't forget love

Yastreb · « **Reply #1446 on:** July 14, 2024, 09:16:09 AM »

So don't forget love
Without love, we are soulless
What we need is love

thorny · « **Reply #1447 on:** July 14, 2024, 08:27:27 PM »

What we need is, love,
A place to live together
With those of good will.

Buteo · « **Reply #1448 on:** July 16, 2024, 04:50:39 PM »

With those of good will
I can live; but not with those
Who won't use good sense.

thegreyarea · « **Reply #1449 on:** July 19, 2024, 02:33:38 PM »

Who won't use good sense
and let hate define their path?
Why wrong before right?

midwestmutt · « **Reply #1450 on:** July 20, 2024, 07:36:43 AM »

why wrong before right
the winding river flows on
the easiest path.

thorny · « **Reply #1451 on:** July 20, 2024, 03:59:50 PM »

The easiest path
In the short run is often
Hard in the long run.

thegreyarea · « **Reply #1452 on:** August 23, 2024, 04:09:44 PM »

Hard, in the long run,
Life is, so the wise prepares
Winter always comes

Winter always comes
Wait! Though spring will sprout shortly
Sunlight and flowers

Yastreb · « **Reply #1454 on:** August 23, 2024, 09:49:04 PM »

Sunlight and flowers
And gamboling unicorns...
Can't we have all three?
