Stop the War

Stop the war, Pleaded the children Eyes filled to the brim with Despair as to how they can feel Hope being destroyed with gloom Stop the war Else how will peace be celebrated As the symbolic Goddess of Earth? That which allowed us all To smile at new dawns and to Sigh contentedly at the onset of each dusk Stop the war, Time, days, territories, history, clans, Belongings, thoughts, mindsets, Everything comes and goes since Nothing is permanent here in a world Which gives us not the bliss Of living forever! Stop the war, Violence remains futile And the breaking of each innocent heart, Accompanied with the spilling of each drop of blood Shall be written somewhere in the karmic book of records And it remains inevitable That that which is sown is that which is reaped! Stop the war, please, Already troubled by a pandemic, People want to allow their own selves Some stable breathing space Instead of being submerged in the fear of bombs And the loss of lives! Stop the war, Since clinging on to the unnecessary Shall merely pave the way For the torch bearers of the Kali Yuga To proclaim it loud and clear That circumstances are shining forth in their favour!
