The Fruit Of Life

One thing to save the world.

One thing to make all well.

One thing; only one.

 

Some starve while others waste.

 

Why?

 

When all the world is a stage

Why is our performance not that

Of health and prosperity?

 

When all men deserve life, liberty and property

Why do they not deserve health?

Is health not life?

Is life not health?

 

A healthy life is worthwhile.

A worthwhile life is healthy.

 

The fruits of our earth.

The fruits of life.

 

The property of all men.

 

Equally.
