poem 2 comments challenge: Activism

I Believe

I believe
that it is wrong
that some people
are treated as
lower then others.
I believe
that it is wrong
that some people
are not welcome
in our home.
I believe
that it is wrong
that children are taken
away from their parents.
I believe
that it is wrong
that we are
trashing our planet
we were given
so graciously.
I believe
that it is wrong
that people choose
not to to care.
I believe
we all just need to
care more and
give love more frequently.
I am a believer
and this is what I believe.
I believe everyone has some good in them
sometimes it's just hard to see.

    Wow I have been trying all day to write a poem that sums up what I believe in and this poem you wrote is exactly what I was trying to say. So thank you, I agree with everything you said 100%. SO much is wrong and I believe something definitely needs to change. Also the rhythm to this poem is very good. Good job!
