War and Peace

War and Peace… 
A dynamic dichotomy 
Though Peacemaker and Warrior 
Require equal audacity 
God bless the Peacemaker 
Whose enlightened vision 
For the preservation of Humanity 
Gives hope to posterity 
And a roadmap to salvation 
And God bless the soldier 
Whose bravery and sacrifice  
Makes peace an alternative  
And battle the answer  
To the recalcitrant evildoer 
For whom Peace 
Was never a consideration 
Thank you, Peacemaker 
Thank you, Soldier 
Enlightened souls might recognize 
That you could embody 
The same mind 
The same spirit 
Speak softly… 
And carry a big stick 
God bless you
