Warning Signs

Warning Signs

The light of hope so strongly shines
But also, sometimes, warning signs
Keep watch and simplify these times
For endless are the subtle crimes

A hopeful heart on every street
That won't accept it may be beat
A blessing for the ones who win
'What fun!  Now let the game begin'

And yet the kind and gentle souls
Have deeper thoughts and worthy goals
So easily missed by hardened mind
Are things which those will never find

Now if the world seems quite a mess
Reflect some more, and don't distress
Most people live in narrow lines
So take good note of warning signs
