Let Peace Prevail

A veil hangs over our world, governments debating this and that, threats of war, their rhetoric knows no bounds. Each night and tonight is no exception, I watch the news, read the news, my eyes go all cloudy. No not smoke, err one day it might well be! This night and those past, its tears that cloud my eyes, sadly. Shed, perhaps in vain as things have not changed for what seems like an eternity. Maybe my tears are tears of hope for the world and all of humanity. That peace will be, and bring us all together. My tears, now rivers that flow with words. Words I hope will flood the minds of all politicians, dissolve their veils so they can see the truth, and let world peace prevail!

rivers flow... feeding quenching pastures... watering life climate warming kills
