THE WORLD NEEDS LOVE

To illusions or dreams the heart is driven

Though the world is not just about love

And it's the key, connection to heaven

Spreading peace and lighting path thereof

And unto us, a choice of power's given

But a sad world weeps for the lack of love.

Thanks Tealight, just a little thought the world will be a better place if there's love. And I think it's the best connection to heaven.

Nice thoughts Joy. We definitely need more love in this world. We need Jesus's love more than ever that is the real connection to heaven. Don't know if you are a Mom but surely know you have one. So have a Happy Mother's Day my friend.

So true Rachael, a sad picture of our world. It's disheartening also the corruption revealed behind this pandemic. There were disturbing videos in the internet that were removed on how we're manipulated to have fear and get simply get sick with vaccines... we don't know actually if this crisis is planned. Thanks for this piece. More power to your writing.

Thanks SM, love is healing factor for the world, a positive emotion but there's a lot of hate dividing us... Nice of you to visit with your kind words. Stay strong and safe..

Hi, JoyCrest,
Thanks for sharing THE WORLD NEEDS LOVE. Amen.
As Rachael_0622 wrote, “There won't be peace on earth until All have their fair piece of the pie!” We each must learn to serve equity and love: one slice, one action, one word at a time, Spreading peace...

Dear JoyCrest,
Nice Poem Here
Makes One Think

GOD IS LOVE - 1 John 4:16 -
And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Since G-d is everywhere >
And lives-within you,
He comes-out through Poetry,
a smile, greeting, or an introduction,
a kind word or gesture
humor, laughter / etcetera...
It is Important to Encourage
One Another

Bonjour Joy

It's true, this world needs lots of LOVE..and HEALING in those moments of great turmoil.

We are being kept divided and separated through Fear.
And as long as there is Fear, Love cannot flow!

JoyCrest: One might argue that the alleged 'loving merciful god' would have assured love would reign. Maybe Peace and Harmony should have been one of the Ten Commandments. The world has much 'love'...sadly it has more evil.

Love is certainly needed across my country right now. Reminds and takes me back to the 1960's hot summer nights of burning and looting. That was over 50 years ago so I feel like we are going backwards instead of forward. We need lots of love and prayers for sure.

Passionate Artist, Thanks for your kindness and your inspiring, comforting words.

Lookn2share, thanks for your visit. Indeed we need peace and harmony in the world.... But unfortunately, some people are empty, without love and they want war. Sad to see this.
