The World Today, Yesterday, and Tomorrow
Jackson G. Orlanda
The world and its people seem worrisome
Problems persist, they just come
We contribute to what we experience
While our planet shrinks and fights for conscience
People used to help each other
They forgot humanity, they did not bother
Kindness and sympathy lost their meaning
Apathy pushed the love's fleeing
So now together, we will fuse our abilities
The world will rise to create new societies
Children will help shape our tomorrow
We will build the splendor and all back aglow
