POEM - PEACE ON EARTH HAS WORTH

 

PEACE ON EARTH HAS WORTH

 

Peace on the earth is always good to human kind

It is as true as this proverb, good mind good find

 

Wars have been devastating to the people and wealth

Wars have been making poor the nations on the earth

 

Wars have been producing artificial limbs for civilians

Wars have been seen as counter products of rebellions

 

War mongers always create rapid conflicts for war

But the peace keeping good people counter it at par 

 

The beauty of humanity is hidden in peace and love

We don't want vultures, we want olive leaf and dove 

 

Conflicts are inescapable but a war is not the solutions 

We resolve them with peace, if we call us civilised nations

 

Remember that peace and harmony are essential for growth 

We will never wage a war, come on we should take an oath
