A PLEA FOR PEACE

By Zero

Originally published

Can man ever understand The cry of the innocents in foreign lands Or the anguish shared on our own soil. Death and destruction taken its toll, Peace interrupted it commonplace, Retaliation occurs at a rapid pace? "Vengeance is mine", saith the Most High, But at the lamb the lion has roared, Suicide missions perceived as valor, Signs of compromise keep growing paler. Guns, bombs and loss of lives Where is peace when no one survives? Where is righteousness in each barren region? Bands of rebels form separate legions. Why can't leaders agree together in unity? Children, Youths, Adult and Old, it's time We fight for what we believe (PEACE).
