marred by the few
who would take us to war
without a clue
of who we are fighting
and what we are fighting for.
I've had enough.
I say no more.
What we need are leaders
who understand love...
that is in each of us,
that comes from above.
An eternity of warring
could come to an end.
We could start now.
Please let us begin
to heal the wounds,
forget the past...
from this moment forward
build a peace
that will last.
You are such a wonderful, thoughtful poet. I think that not watching news for the last 2 weeks has been very good for you.
