The Winds Of Conflict

The Winds Of Conflict


                                  The winds of Conflict blow until the raging floods come 
                                 then stop suddenly to occasionally creep up with more mischief
                                and trouble only to be quieted by the air of calm 

                              The waters of peace cover the roads and yards of villages
                             requiring everyone to either stay home or travel in boats of 
                             remorse and rafts of guilt

                              But the Divine Father sends peace and comfort to all
                            evaporating the waters and cooling the heat of hate as
                           it lingers then blowing it away

                            Sometimes the clouds of misfortune and false information
                           circle around then continue coming to only be occasionally
                          accepted like chocolate berries but other times rejected like
                         a raw steak
