For Hamas And The IDF -- Life Is Holy

What a simple and beautiful premise- - - - - Everything That Lives Is Holy! If only we as the human race could follow it and give Life the respect that it deserves We'd have no more degradations, barbarous acts, despicable killings..... Wars! All religions preach this concept It is a thread that binds all humanity What will it take for our leaders to understand this? Every day there are so many useless deaths When will it sink in? Hopefully with the Grace of God

Frank, your poetry is skillfully composed and brimming with vivid imagery. If only we could prevent the repetition of past mistakes, we could all coexist peacefully. Thanks for your comment and visit to my page.

Religions may preach it but they flip flop when self interest is at stake. Only Jehovah's witnesses are truly neutral to politics, in harmony with Jesus' command at John 17:16. Nice, hopeful poem Frank
