An Answer You ask ME, why there is War? My love, I will tell you of humanity. When you ask me of humanity. I will tell thee of Love.   Ask me of Love, And I shall tell you of Pain. To speak of Pain, I will teach you to Fear.    To speak of Fear, you must learn of Need. To learn of Need. I must answer in Want.   When I tell you of Want, You shall Know of Longing. When you understand what it is, to ..Long.   I will tell you of Children, and you shall learn of Beauty.    When you learn of Beauty. We will speak of Peace.    When you know Peace, Then Love, I shall take your hand.    When you ask,  "Do I Love?". I shall Kiss you. When you ask, "Have I Loved" I shall answer, "You are here.".    I will hold you in your Pain. I will Fear that you should know War.    I will Pray that your children, Create Art of their Love. And have a life of Beauty, I will long that they shall grow old, And Know more,..Peace Then I have yet, ...to Learn.    And when I learn, I shall know god, An Answer I Pray.
