If I only could

Jet Rood


With my magic wand
 I will touch the things
 with all the love within me
 to give as a precious gift

 It whirls down the sprinkling stars
 all over our planet
 leaving a gentle caress
 among the living beings

 The fighting and killing
will end one day
 no more cruelty or terror
but laughter and joy instead

 People will do remember
 why they came to earth
 to have a good time together
 and  make it a peaceful place

Writing is a need like eating and sleeping. I think we are all wondrous creatures who deserve to love ourselves and live in freedom. I like to participate in cases which can make a difference for myself, my surroundings and the earth. My wish: humanity in a non-dualistic society. more…
