Taking Back Poem by Kathryn BecknerOssman

TAKING BACK
By: KathrynO.

Babies dying because there are not wanted
School children are ‘different’, so their being taunted

Why is the world filled with such hate?
Why at another’s words you berate?

Were physically different, but genetically the same
Created with love in Jesus’ name

Can’t you see that evil is winning?
The seven deadly sins have the world spinning

Pride, Envy, Gluttony or Lust,
Which one for you is a must

Sloth, Anger or Greed
Which one is part of your creed

Look inside and find your life’s meaning
Stop the nefarious acts and start gleaning

Lets get the world back to a glorious place
For EACH of us are part of the same human race
