News - Visitor's Poem
by Liz Gillespie
(Stirling, Scotland)
Looking back as the year comes to a close I reflect on whatâs gone on by
War and hunger, poverty and rageâ¦. I shake my head and sigh
An ever flowing river of sorrow seems to run across the land
The greed and ignorance, hatred and envy created by our own hand
But what about the tears of joy and the news that is happy and good
We never see enough of this and I honestly think we should
The negativity in all our lives should never take the lead
And equal balance if bad and good is what we really need
