 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

If Only We Did


Some for ages have said we come from Apes
Well I'll retain my thoughts about that~
But looking at what man has mostly done upon earth
If we come from Apes I will eat my hat~
There is no way at all Apes would ever do
Upon earth what man has mostly done~
Left alone as Apes do in the wild
They live peacefully in all of rain and sun~
They know nothing of mans destruction
Or of his greed and always needing more~
They have their rules and seldom fools
Their loved ones they forever adore~
They said that we come from apes
If only that we did~
As if we come from Apes as some say
Then from a lot of their perfection how we have slid~
So beautiful in their being naturally
Without the need of man at all~
But there's no way that we come from them
Basically we as a race could mostly not answer that call~
They among themselves have a peace we seek so~
They know unending lifelong love~
How to live in harmony together
And yes , Still blessed by God above~
Some say that we come from Apes
If only this could be true~
We would by now know actual peace upon earth
And not the world as today that we do ~
