I Wonder?

Can a house be called a home
When no love is within it's walls
Can a rose display it's full beauty
If it receives no care at all?

Can freedoms prevail in a land
If morals of it's people decline
Can a woman truly love a man
If he belittles her all the time?

Can a ship ride out a raging storm
If it's captain isn't properly qualified
Can young people be successful
If lawful rules they don't abide?

Can world civilization survive
In a world filled with hate
Will evil surrender to good
Before it's too late?

I wonder?
