Analysis of Deserving Of...

Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)



So many more are deserving of...
Happiness to get it.
With a peace of mind to have and not go.
So many are deserving,
To be treated with respect.
Without it asked to be given.
As if a Mockingbird taught to speak,
Words heard to repeat them.
No matter who the people are,
Should be treated as if...
Human beings!
Human beings deserving of...
Everything God serves them to bring.

And let it be noticed...
What is taken from another,
To claim it owned is taken back.
As if magic.

What is taken from another,
To claim it owned is turned into crap.
And to remind in most times,
It is doesn't take wars or weapons to prove...
Mother Nature does that.
