Harmony is the answer

Harmony is the answer when today gets ripped apart,
From those scattered fragments, there’s a new world waiting to start.
Within all of those pieces, the good bits can still be found,
A chance to scoop them up and leave the bad bits on the ground.

Harmony is the answer to confusions painful spin,
Slowing our lives down, giving a chance for peace to begin.
Seek out those fragments of kindness, use them to line your life,
Then toss in pieces of hope, to ease you through times of strife.

Harmony is the answer when tomorrow’s lost its sight,
Reaching beyond the darkness, using peace to find the light.
Pick up those scattered dreams, set them straight once more,
Dust the damage off them, then back into your heart, restore.

So if harmony is the answer, how can it be shared?
Bring together the pieces that showed how this world once cared.
Mix it all together with the love found within your heart,
Then spread it around, let everyone receive a part.

Let love and harmony bring all of our dreams together,
Use peace and kindness to guide them through the stormy weather.
Discard all of the bad fragments that fell out of the pain,
Let us build a better world with the fragments that remain.

Anger is not the answer

Anger is not the answer, no solution can it find,
Nothing good can grow from the tattered words it leaves behind.
Nothing can get better when words of anger are in flight,
Obscuring the present, robbing the future of its sight.

Anger is not the answer, don’t let it be your envoy,
It does not know how to mend, but only how to destroy.
It flings harmony to one side, leaves chaos in its wake,
All the love, peace, joy, and kindness within you, it will take.

Anger is not the answer, so don’t let it win today,
If it comes close to you, step back and let it go its way.
Anger can never put right any wrongs that there may be,
It only makes things worse, with solutions harder to see.

So if anger is not the answer, what can take its place?
Try taking a step or two back, and slowing down the pace.
Look at the bigger picture, let understanding begin,
Toss anger out the door and welcome compromising in.

Let love and harmony guide you through angers tangled maze,
Hold on to peace and kindness, as you move through the haze.
It may be a struggle when anger’s darkness brings its strife,
But the light of love is stronger, let it shine through your life.
