The Answer to the Question

Posted on March 9, 2022March 11, 2022

********************************* 

We’re all just floating 

through time and space

Temporary members

Of this human race 

We’re all part of the stardust

That fell upon the earth 

Trying to learn the lessons 

We’re all given from our birth

Show a little kindness 

Care for one another 

That person next to you 

Is a sister or a brother 

Nothing really matters

Except the love

we all could share 

If we took care of each other 

All strife would disappear

The answer to the question 

Is

Love

If you didn’t catch it 

Let me say it once again 

It really doesn’t matter 

The color of your skin 

Yellow red black white 

green or blue

The most important factor 

Is your heart is true

Show a little kindness 

Care for one another 

That person next to you 

Is a sister or a brother 

Nothing really matters

Except the love

we all could share 

If we took care of each other 

There’d be no reason for despair

The answer to the question 

Is

Love

There have been many songs with this message, the Beatles said it with, “All you need is Love”. It seems to me these are the basic tenets of most religions and philosophies even though it seems they are not always practiced. I believe with every fiber of my being that if we were all kind to each other, a little more patient with each other, a little more caring, this could truly be the paradise we all desire. I’ve been called a “Hippie” for writing this sort of song but if labels must be applied, I prefer “Human”. The words first came as the second verse and the chorus. I started putting music to it and then the first verse revealed itself. Someone told me it was a good hippie anthem, I’ll take that. I don’t see anything wrong with trying to bring peace and happiness to the world! Love is the answer.
