I
What happens when conflicts and wars cease?
When humanity stops being ill at ease?
What happens in a world where there is peace?
Every child paid for school fees.
ii
You and I blame him for being wrong.
Will we ever learn to get along?
iii
I rise only to see those that need a helping hand
And I am ashamed by the sun when she pours love
On us all like doves above.
The latter cause, we get funds,
Only to divert them then struggle for land
iv
How much innocence has been lost
By wars which escalate the most?
V
Let us not get drunk for wars,
But drink from a *** of peace to
Quench our thirst.
Let peace be through humanity.

Another piece by my son in Kampala, Uganda. After the violence of the recent elections, reflections on peace.
