The World Needs Peace, Not Through Wars!

What loss of lives and destruction! Can lives all lost ever return? How many more will have to die? Can one man’s death bring back lives lost? What pollution, a war can add! Let Cats who declare wars on mice, Take the blame and pay the price! War is a gambling game like dice; War is a futile exercise. One cannot fight wars with mere knives; War is a waste of human lives; Alas, will nations realize That keeping peace is always wise? Wars can begin without a cause; The world can’t have a single boss! One nation can’t stifle the rest, Or try to be always the best. The world body must give OK! The world must say to wars, all ‘nay’; For lasting peace, war isn’t the way! The cost of wars, who will repay? The world must find out other ways, Avoiding wars in future days; Each nation must unmask its face, And set on peace, its gaze always! Copyright by Dr John Celes 1-1-2007
