War

War today is all around The four winds carry its awful sound And people fight people so more men die My only question is just why? They have a war on terror and a war on drugs A war on peace and even on love And mans obsession with killing his fellow man Is out of control all over this land As we point our guns at our neighbour's land Are we really so different or just like lines in the sand Lines that shift and disappear over time were not lines were people thats why i write this rhyme

"A war on peace and even on love" says so much, Cameran. I ask my self this question every time I see reports on the fighting in the Mideast. Congratulations on having this poem featured this week. Love, Carolyn
