A Current World View Poem by George Krokos

As the time comes and there's better hope for tomorrow
then there will be many people who'll be free of sorrow.
They all eagerly await that day with regional squabbles
and parts of the world now have their share of troubles.

The burdens of this world rest upon humanity's shoulder
though there's a lack of wisdom for some getting older.
They're mostly caught up in the ways of the dead past
and don't see any light on the horizon now being cast.

Without having a vision of the future people are said to perish
and some of the things done now so many don't really cherish.
Most of their actions and reactions cause them so much worry
they look for a quick way out to end their regret at being sorry.

If only people could live in harmony with themselves and others
they could then appreciate the relationship of sisters and brothers.
Living and working all together for this world's common good
is the goal we should be striving for that'll stabilize our mood.
