Message For Peace
Boom ....boom....boom
Guns roar, bombs blast, causing
death, deformity and destruction,
leading to distress and doom.
Streets reek with the smell of newly shed blood.
Dead bodies pile, all around is carnage.
Dark clouds hang on the horizon
In one name or other, violence is concocted.
Frivolous ideologies kill lives of innocents
with the world turning into a battlefield,
We are besieged by terror's sting.
We need an escape from this inferno.
Pure harmony is what the world longs for.
Let no cannons roar, let no rebellion shriek
Let no wounded soldier fall down and die
Let no woman become a widow, no child- an orphan
Let no drop of blood spill on the cobalt streets
Paint the canvas in colors of love and kindness.
Strive to build a land of peace-
Peace is an energy field much more potent than a battlefield
Is peace merely the absence of war?
No, it is a tranquil feeling in the breast,
the absence of fear, an all encompassing aura of safety
the annihilation of prejudices and a tight knot of oneness
It is being in peace with oneself and others!
Hope this calming dream and lovely fancy
of mine shall no more remain a wild fantasy
