change our ways

We have to change our ways

We have to change how we take things

We have to change how we make our living

We have to change how we play politics

The warnings in our lives

The diseases and viruses in our days

We read the deaths and the suffering

There is something to be learned

But we forget with our pursuits in life

We forget to balance with Nature

We plunder on our greed and lusts

Nature brings us our pain

The scriptures have warned us

Be compassionate; be responsible

Be loving; be kind; be helpful

Don't do bad but be good

We forget; we pay

Now with viruses singing in our ears

We have to take stock of our ways

Relearn; retune; and change
