Plea For World Peace
Oh, sweet God, deafening roars of war's fire,
soldiers and civilians broken lifeless.
Skies ablaze, screaming missiles,
thunderous horizons.
The wails of fallen's families,
a plea for world peace,
joining prayers of many people.
In countries around the globe,
a weeping of bereavement.
A sighing of the soul,
bent knees, hands holding their
children closer,
a plea for the silence of the guns. ~
