Welcomed Friend; Peace
Peace, what a blessed
word.
Pause and consider
it’s meaning.
A word; too seldom
heard.
Whether for world,
family, heart or mind
Like a welcomed friend,
it’s sought
But sometimes &
most often; very hard to find.
Countries send their
loved ones to serve and even fight
They even give their
lives for it
Or they’re maimed or
loose their sight.
Hearts are bleeding;
for mothers of all kind
Whose sons and daughters
gave their lives,
Fighting for what we
can’t even find.
What causes war; this
turmoil, anyone really know?
Was it embedded; in
the heart of man
Thousands of years
ago?
Did it start from bad
relationships, or from one bad seed?
Can it spring forth
and grow
From a thought, word,
or deed?
What will bring the
solution, some miracle cure,
(Welcomed friend) peace
to us,
Forever to endure?
