Poetic Verses

Spirit of Goodwill

Even though many of us repeated say such in such good spirit
But being practical, we display the behavior of a hypocrite
Proclaiming such good wishes and better will to all men
However throughout the world the is such a problem

Some of us tend to laugh when we see that picture of children
Obviously starved, dehydrated bodies depicting that of skeleton
Portraying abject poverty and the state is quite apparent
That it has be ages since they had a bath or change of garment

Many it seem though happy, have lost their parent early
Orphaned and also victims as they contracted HIV congenitally
Thus deprived of any semblance of happiness found in the sanctuary of a family
So we can hold our own children closely, and consider them to be so lucky.

We can just imagine the extent to which some suffered in a country
Being subjected to abuse, physically sexually and partake in forced pornography
Also forced labor, there are other atrocities that come easily to the mind
Some losing limbs, during tribal outburst or accidentally stepping on a land mine.

Who could remember how in some war people exploit their innocence
To induce the enemy on seeing them applies just that little hesitance
Now caught in a state of confusion and what is ratified in the Geneva Convention
When they realize what was happening; an explosion, sent them all to oblivion.

So whilst we are eating drinking and some untouched meal discarding
Some where some people don't know from where a meal is coming
But many of us with our squandering habits preferred to feed those vermin
Not even caring about those person, elsewhere who are suffering.

There all those Christian people do this and then rejoice
Hence spread good cheer by doing to your brother man something nice
There will be no end to the problem, but extend that helping hand
Make this a special moment to all the world's wonderful children.

Now we can see by technology. What is happening in other parts?
This should stir up that human, loving and caring spirit in our hearts
Let's all endeavor, to make thing better, so that a smile will grace
At Christmas time many an unfortunate little child's face.
