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. ~

We have lost so many. Hashem is in control. I'm trying to write this while Hurricane Helene lashes our area with wind and rain.. Blessings to you and your family, good friend.

Pleas have been prayerfully made for thousands of years, to no avail. Many wonder why God turns a deaf ear. The time is coming when the Prince of Peace will end all wars. Great poem
