And Be No More



So very many folks of all different shapes,and colors
Hating and killing one another
Why not end all this pain and suffering forever
As one race
 Really isn't any better than the next

For all folks and peoples of this planet
Better learn to try,and get along
Or no one will be left or alive to carry on
That wouldn't it be so much better
Of all Human parties of concern

To let just a little more love and sunshine in
Cause too many dark clouds in so many lives
Have brought about enough tears
For more than 100,000 lifetimes

As it sure is past time
 For everyone to forgive and move on
Cause if we all don't learn to love forgive
Life on this planet will just die; and be no more...
