Who dropped the Love Bomb?

Who dropped the Love Bomb?

A Poem by Mark Hurlin Shelton

WHO DROPPED THE LOVE BOMB?

Who dropped the love bomb?
   Yes, I confess
it was I-
       Who let it fall from the sky.

I flew over the battle-
    In my stealth peace jet-
And I dropped the love bomb
          I have no regret

Yes I dropped the Love Bomb-
     For this " crime" I must pay
For now all the people
        Are happy and gay

I dropped the love bomb
     From up above
And now the whole world
      Has fallen in Love

I dropped the Love bomb
     That I will never regret-
I dropped the Love bomb-
      That they'll never forget

Now In the aftermath of my responsible action
    The whole world is filled
        with peace- satisfaction

In the wake of the loving madness-
   Every soldier is filled
with goodwill and gladness
       And no-one gets killed

Happy people
    Without fears-
without care
    are scattered all about-
       everywhere

Mirth Is Strewn haphazardly
    about on the ground
There's no more despair-
       There's peace all around-

The Tanks and guns are abandoned and silent
    The Generals are doing a Salsa dance
No one is violent
         They've all decided to give peace a chance

I dropped the love bomb
    World leaders all
  insist I was wrong
        They can't let this state of affairs carry on

 Everybody's singing a cheesy love song-
      World leaders are making a tremendous fuss-
      They no longer have any control over us.-

I dropped the Love bomb
        It was on the TV News
   The governments and warmongers are devastated
          They're singing the blues-
     This peace will cost them zllions in revenues

They say unless
   hatred
is very soon reinstated.
    To a future of peace-
The world is now fated.

I dropped the Love Bomb
    It was my soul/sole decison
It hit its target with lively precision

The "victims" are still all hugging and kissing
    But The governments are still fuming and hissing-

The bankers are losing in revenues
     And peace is all you see on the TV news.

Yes-I dropped the love bomb.
    Yes I take all the blame-
It felt so good
     I want to do it again.
