My

Broken

Friend I hug

The world swallowed

By the hand of greed

I can give so little

Face covering a small step

It is hoped each will do their best

To stop the tears of pain and heartbreak

So the world can spin in harmony once more…

    Yes it amazes me how thoughtless people are. Even people who show know better. I see it all the time even at my work space. Sigh.

    Lovely. There would be so much less pain if everyone would just consider others. We need your poetry in the US.
