 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

Weeding Life's Gardens


If the world we know was a garden
Than maintain it as such we should~
No excuses , rid it of the weeds
And more common sense it would be good~
Once the world even during war times was better
Than it ever could be today~
Laws and more laws still they come
And only the innocent they pay~
The worldly trouble coursers simply don't care
Only the innocent read the rules~
And take notice of them to the letter
The trouble coursers see us all as fools~
We fought long ago against dictatorship
We are getting more so all the time~
Restrictions after restrictions they come
And only the good,the innocent walk the line~
I remember a world of way more unity
And love and care and friend~
And yet it is the innocent that only pay
Against a woe that's so hard to defend~
Time all on earth was chipped or the likes
To read of their history~
But come what may upon the day
People would still not live as once happily~
Only the little people walk the line
And do as the good , the loving do~
There has to be another way
To treat the woes of the world it's true~
Once unity between country and country
Was such a simple thing long it seems ago~
And ever so many would Be's if they could Be's
Changed all that and ever so~
Coursing the worlds innocent such misery
Is not the answer to life's woes~
There has to be another way
As into the future life it goes~
The good , the loving , the simple living folk
Becoming choked by more red tape~
Getting worse every single day
And less and less chance from this to escape~
Governments are more afraid of offending
Other governments than the innocent today~
Who cares about the good , the little person
That in the end mostly are the only ones to pay~
The worldly trouble coursers of worldly woes
They simply it seems do not at all care~
And all the while going the happiness smile
Of the good,the innocent finding all this hard to bare~
