Without Peace We All Know Where We're Headed...... Give peace a chance, will those of nobility declare Intelligence of spirit, who could ever compare Valiantly fighting the evil in the world, unwilling to fail Earnestly helping those needy, without ever becoming frail Peacefully sacrificing time and energy without ever reconsidering Endangering themselves to constantly make a difference Antagonizing the establishment for an instance Coming home with battle scars to wear and none to share Emphasizing they are not heroes, only that "they care" Angering all others, for showing they disagree Considering the options with nowhere to hide Hiroshima and its aftermaths, would never subside Attempting to disrupt, what those warmongers insist No necessity to justify, the results do persist Coming full circle does our world continue to exist Ending in oblivion, if we don't learn how to desist

Give Peace A Chance
Without Peace We All Know Where We're Headed...... Give peace a chance, will those of nobility declare Intelligence of spirit, who could ever compare Valiantly fighting the evil in the world, unwilling to fail Earnestly helping those needy, without ever becoming frail Peacefully sacrificing time and energy without ever reconsidering Endangering themselves to constantly make a difference Antagonizing the establishment for an instance Coming home with battle scars to wear and none to share Emphasizing they are not heroes, only that "they care" Angering all others, for showing they disagree Considering the options with nowhere to hide Hiroshima and its aftermaths, would never subside Attempting to disrupt, what those warmongers insist No necessity to justify, the results do persist Coming full circle does our world continue to exist Ending in oblivion, if we don't learn how to desist
A short poem on the importance and need of pursuing peace, and the great nobility of all those that have sacrificed themselves in one way or another to TRY and bring about that peace. As world history has shown time and again, death and devastation on a world (numbers) scale, sadly, are all too real.
