Notes About The Poem

A World Without War Poetry Contest, Sponsor - Anoucheka Gangabissoon. Date written: 03/09/2024

A World Without War

  a place beyond dreams;
    u   t   o   p   i   a where 
         unity blossoms 
          and humanity 
shines so bright; no wars...

   are fought with words 
        or with weapons; 
         no bloodletting.
           a safe haven...

       where love reigns
          and peace is
            sustaining.

                i wish
                to live...

                there.
