Array ( [sid] => 39695 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Every Man, Women and Child [time] => 2004-03-22 00:49:48 [hometext] => Again thoughts in passing.... [bodytext] => Quiet thoughts of the day and what it held
as things and thoughts came floatin in.

People places and memeries and a brush with the sun.
Wonderful feeling breathing and thinking all is just great
But outside I know much better,
not all are as fortunate as we are.

I look around and thank God I have a home
A bit crowded at times but nothing like whats happen in Port-Au-Ponn *Prince*
The people and their faces here, hold smiles and laugher
Not the sounds bombs and gun shells exploding all around

In Haiti /Nigeria their running and rioting and Folks are walking with guns.
Oh my where did we go wrong
Is that the answer for all thats gone wrong.

Fighting and wasteing good lives
Young men dropping like flys
Young children crying for their suppers, their fathers and some Love

I take a deep breath and wonder into each room.
And make believe, in my head each room is as much of a new world ,as I wish it to be.

Each little corner was created by me.
There is a corner and Always a reason for being right there
Everything has a place and thats seems just right
I wonder so more and Life is growing in Plants and Pots and Pictures that decorate me from the ugly outside .

Where nothing makes any sense and we only have to visit five times a week.
Make enuff money to eat and read the paper of what so-sos government done now
And look at phographs of people suffering and , confused, angry and lost

Our telvisions are windows left open to view or turn off. Our cares and the worlds miseries
Just switched off
But we know its not true there is some thing we can all do

Write some who cares,
Write your Government rep and have your peace be said
A simple letter is all it takes,
Some simple words we heard more often then Not

Please stop the War and send those boys home.
Signed every man , women and child

So many conflicts in this world of our most man made. I myself am waiting for the day when the whole world will be at peace. Will it happen in my time? I think not man is too greedy. Have a good peaceful life now from bernard.

Over 1 million people gathered in London to protest at the iraq war, even with this show of public opposition the british government didn't make one concession, lets hope everybody remembers that next time they vote (not me i refuse to) what i hate about that war in particular is the lies, everybody knows the worlds oil reserves are running low, and Iraq has oil in abundance, call me a cynic but why dont we admit all we have done is come up with any excuse to steal it from them?
