A Cry For Peace

The lines are few and scattered just like the way we are now Our country is like a war farm and the leaders are the farmers religion stings, corruption, suicide bombing and dead are the activities in the farm a cup of blood for the thirsty no one to judge I feel the pains even in our breathe A cry for peace from the wing of Nigeria

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
