Announcement For The Entire World
Public Announcement Challenge
Announcement To The Entire World
You are treading on dangerous ground
People are fighting far and wide
And only YOU get to decide
Whether you can get along with friends and foe
And how much you want any of them to know.
The same sun is shining on us all today, no matter where you live, and what you say
It's frightening to see what is going on around the world
Shootings, protests, murders and the like
People fleeing, people fighting, all those disagreements
When we don't agree, we are bound to fight
People dying in wars and on our open seas
When does it stop, and when do we say PLEASE
STOP.................
The violence-Stop the hatred................
STOP - And look around you, and you will see............
We are, and always have been more alike than we are different............

So true! Sometimes we need to step back and remember our common humanity.
A great announcement!! I really do feel so much better when the sun is shining!💖💕💗
Every line hits hard. Makes me think about what I can do today to spread understanding instead of hate.
Excellent poem & take on the challenge. Love the photo with the sun & moon shining.
Great words to end with... If only we can all realize such a simple but true statement.
Fabulous words if only those in power would listen. Great job!!
