Africa - Wheres The Profit?
A poetic comment that just welled up inside my head ? why cant we just do something ? before many more are dead? How pious those politicians are, I don't remember requesting weapons, I didn't ask for that highway, Did I ask to stockpile food in hangars, The cost of clothes, for the 'P.M's' wife, And if every politician, in the world, If we must invade some countries, Conglomerates make huge profits, So Mister Politician, if you are itching to invade,Let's all invade Africa, with help and love and aid! So now it's over to you, let your voice be heard. Don't let this sin continue, it really is absurd!

A melody of passion flowing out onto the pages, words that flow into each other and yet express the inner most thoughts and feelings of those who read the words. Writing poetry is a gift, a wonderful gift, being able to illuminate words so that they form a picture, express a feeling and share a thought in so few words. Unlike telling a story or writing a novel that explains every intricate detail a poem leaves you to draw your own conclusion. Writing poetry can be a healing process, putting down on paper all the emotions locked up inside ones head, a way of remembering and a way of re-living. Poetry has many forms from free verse to sonnet but all poems tell a story, a story of words, words wrapped around each other in such away that they flow together, locked in meaning. The poem below is titled "Playing" and every time I read this poem I cannot help but smile, as too will any mother reading this poem. See if you smile.
