Notes About The Poem

" PEACE " MY PHOTO, ©

May be an image of flower and nature

Love and Peace

Seas are filled with tears

Shed by the weeping angels
 
For men lost in war,

Let us fill our hearts with love
 
And make war capitulate!

Dear friend Demetrios, I loved reading this beautiful Tanka. The picture used was beautiful, and that is true. It is simpler now than ever to kill people, and we must do all that we can to replace it with more love in our hearts.

It's the path mankind should take, the only winners in war are the arms manufacturers and its the innocent who suffer. Tom
