Starting Now- 5/28/10

I am an American
By birth
But a world citizen
By choice
Hear my voice
Above the din
This is how peace begins
From without
And from within

Look at me
If I am to have worth
Then we must care
For this earth
Diligently
We are the same
This is not a game
The winner
Does not have more
He has less
What he takes away
He must replace
Otherwise he is a disgrace
And he cannot be proud
Of the distress
That he abides

When I look inside
When I look at you
I want to see
The light of joy
Not darkness
That needs to be destroyed
I want us to see
You and me
I and thou
There are no others
We are all
Sisters and brothers
Starting now
