Long ago, when I was young,
The world was full of love,
A walk along the road would bring,
You so many "good mornings."

Bu now it brings bitter warnings !
"Don't go out in the  dark, lock your doors, switch on your alarms."

A walk to the shops with the kids,
A stroll in the park with the dog.
You know all the things we loved.
But now you can't go for a stroll,
In the park, not unless your dog is tough.

Oh where, Oh where has all the love gone ?
Times have changed,
People are strange.
But we all need love.
If we all try to smile and be kind and true,
Shortly we can bring back the love,
We once knew.

My wife wrote this after watching the evening news here in the United 
States.  The story reminded her of some terrible things that happened to 
her when she was very young.
