A Vibrant Life

presently your life is more vibrant
than most can favoured imagine
filled with music laughter dancing
beautiful parties friendships romancing
you are in full social harmonic song
vibrant voice rises serenades in melody
to stir enthrall an angelic appreciative choir
devotees fall at famous adored fame feet
enraptured astonished admiring admiration

presently politic life lead is a web of words
writing seed secret deadly dark deceit
writing upon dark historical stain German
racist rants shaming so called civilized world
an age of political indifference appeasement
failing to act to save entire communities
when jack boots danced party triumphant
preparing to conquer across stage European

just before World War II culture life vibrant
erupted into hateful flame global annihilation
