A World At Peace

What drives a man to spend time All alone in the woods, there's no cure Many TV programs are devoted to this subject Don't the understand the allure To each his own is a famous saying For years man has longed for tranquility A peace and quiet of living alone with nature The allure is gracefully achieved Nothing can match this joy of peace D'ya think this great day will ever happen Man has been a combative beast to start with It has really made me sadden

We can only hope that the day will come Jack. First we need to get rid of the dictators and despots who are hell bent on creating war not peace. Tom

A very thought-provoking poem, Jack. Your descriptions of mankind are accurate. There will always be wars and rumors of war, the peace has to come from inside. Thanks for sharing your caring thoughts with us through your poetry, my friend. It is in itself a service to mankind. Have a great week! Bill

Very true Bill... it is from within! From the beginning of time it is for we humans to accept our lot in life! The world is a wondrous place... if only could see! Thanks for your kind words Bill... Jack
