Peace On Earth

Hearts hankers for true peace earthly peace a dry season drizzle coming suddenly then it vanishes even the little evaporates like fog Hearts yearn for peace made in heaven knees are corroded in prayer and retreats Humans raise hands to God in the skies yawning like hungry goats on verandahs This world of contested angry peace celebrates peace when guns are silent City of God still hopes against hope that one day Emmanuel will come again The world needs true peace to reign Man-made peace is as fragile as straw
