My Prayer For Peace
"My prayer is for war to be banished from earth,
and for peace and harmony to exist for all mankind."
_by Constance

storms shake the ocean of my sleep
where people talk with wooden faces
and peace is like a delicate flower
beautiful, and hope is a fragile seed
my prayer, wish and plea is for peace
for every country of this vast world
for all people to come together and talk
able to speak over a cup of tea
so, speak no words like weapons that incite
but have polite, calm discussions
with many ideas on how to solve a problem
exchanges back and forth and back
my prayer, wish and plea is for peace
we would need no borders anymore
every country would welcome you
and peace would grow and grow
storms shake the ocean of my sleep
where people talk with wooden faces
and peace is like a delicate flower
beautiful, and hope is a fragile seed
oh, blood would never seep like red teardrops
peace would not be broken in battles of ego
for earth now is a house of cards falling
remember, we all share the roof of the world
so, speak no words like weapons that incite
but have polite, calm discussions
with many ideas on how to solve a problem
exchanges back and forth and back
"You may say I'm a dreamer but
I am not the only one. " _John Lennon
