Vision Of Peace

Vision Of Peace

A Poem by Butterflymom
"

Just a little something...please don't judge harshly!

"
I could not believe what I was seeing
Soldiers laying down weapons
Sailors abandoning ships
Planes carrying bombs in their bellies
Being put down on landing strips
Peeling off helmets, and backpacks
Stripping from uniforms and fatigues
Telling their governments it's over
No more war will there be!
We've believed the lies far too long
Been pawns in evil wars
Killing people that are just like me!

Not being willing to fight any longer
World leaders began to talk
Resolving the worlds evils without violence
Something even children are taught!
Not having armies behind them
They had to learn other ways

Corporations had to defend their own
Safe passage in the world
Education and healthcare being funded
Caring for our brothers and sisters
Spreading peace, and love throughout
the world!

Civolisation is the humanization of man.This oracle of Methew Arnold , finds voice in your poem .It is the glorious vision of a vision oriented lady who within a few lines have depicted the universal demand of all men and women of this world , except the
political leaders who are the evil incarnates .
My admiration ,if any ,of this present poem, gets lost into joy :
I wish to love the poetess , I wish to make her a partner of my soul,
For , hers is, the best mission , the simplest truth ,-the 21st century's goal .

I really wish that this is the way it was. Our government our world it’s all so corrupt. If only people could learn not to throw around so much hate. What the world would be like if mankind was not blind to the truth. Great write!
