REASONS TO BE PEACEFUL

Part One

If the firearm bullets were shaped like love hearts,

and  engraved with the names of each  targeted

being,  with the names of every  aimed at, expecting mother, baby,  

toddler, child, teenager....If descending bombs were

replaced with party balloons, personalised with

the names of every younger,  middle aged and

elderly person, from every war torn region, and in

addition , with each  name of every  victim who

was either killed or had survived, then surely.....

these deadly  conflicts would have

 to cease, on both sides, without repercussions or

compromise, with lifelong compensations  and

health care for those affected, with lavish

helpings of humility,  this might even, evoke the

 real and pressing cause,  for a safe and peaceful

 planet... with scope to please everyone, if only,  

these ideas were embraced immediately, as

 genuinely , .................... the  definitive path of absolute reason.

Absolutely. Napalm cotton candy and sherbert grenades for everybody. Choco nukes: we can have a global disarmament eat in. First country to completely swallow its nuclear arsenal gets a free box of warm fuzzies personally delivered to the doorstep of every citizen by retired army generals in pink uniforms and moose loafers.

I am grateful for your fervent support, kind wishes.

Your welcome. Always good to hear from you. I regret to say that its not nearly often enough. Warmest regards.

I like your world vision for helping others. You display that for all of us in a very sincere and thoughtful way. Parts of this poem, like the the about dropping party balloons instead of bombs, really stood out. You're right on the whole...if more people did embrace that path, we really could have a "definitive path of absolute reason." That is because what you write about here is focused on love and peace for others. There is no exploration in your vision. The message you send with this one touches my heart in a very real way.
