The Dream Must Start

POETRY FORMAT, 8 Nov 2021

Bob Neumann | Earth Federation News & Views – TRANSCEND Media Service

Is it too early for a strong world government?
Wiser men have said so for decade — too soon!
There are far too many differing cultures,
a myriad of languages and dialects!
That we all sip coke in our Chinese jeans,
may be a poor substitute
for the political and social cohesion
needed to support such a strange entity
as a strong, all encompassing
world government with world laws.

But who’s to say?
Who really knows?
The brightest European & American minds
predicted right after WW II
with solemn pomp,
that the demise of the colonial system
— covering a mere 2/3 of the world —
was long decades or a century away!
So read this ancient govee student in those
years as written by the reigning seers !
Historically, most of the colonial empires
— and they were the victors of WW II —
we’re gone within ten years!
A little, half naked, bandy-legged man
even led a half billion Hindu and Moslems
to independence from the biggest empire,
without war! Non-violently.

Predicting the future is really tough,
but you and I do make the future by our
daily actions.
So let’s push for a world govee — non-violently!
