A Plea

Some people have all they need Yet they plot and plan and scheme Others go chasing rainbows Pursuing impossible dreams. Bigots Spout their poison Racists make raw our nerves Politicians make promises Then forget the people they serve. Burglars ruin many lives Drug dealers selling crack Isn't it time we called time Demanding our communities back. Proper sentences for criminals For perverts Druggies and thieves Politicians fighting for us for once responding to our needs . Play areas for our children Youth clubs for our kids Children playing safely Just like our parents did. This is not chasing rainbows Nor are they dreams we cannot achieve We can make this whole world so much better If enough of us believe . Write an email to your senator Or a letter to your MP Demand a set of values That will help society. Give praise to our teachers Our future is in their hands The lessons that they teach our kids Could be the saving grace of man.
