The Solution For World Peace
What’s in a handshake?
What's its value or worth?
Between any two people,
All over this beautiful Earth.
The shake outshines
Ten thousand @replies.
It’s not a typed “Hi mate”,
It's much more personalized.
A shake can mean “Well done”,
From New York to a frozen Moscow.
A contract, a promise, an amnesty,
A truce, good bye, a plain hello.
Is the value the feel of human touch,
When starting intimate relations?
It’s so powerful it can even
Create peace between two nations.
Handshakes should be taught
To every school girl and boy.
We might then have universal peace,
Physically connecting all with joy.
