PEACE --A Love Letter to God from the Virgin Mary.


What are we fighting for?

Look at the sparkling sea,

So beautiful

What are we fighting for?

Look at the snow-clad Alps,

So pristine,

What are we fighting for?

Look at the desert dawn,

So golden warm,

What are we fighting for?

Look at the valleys and lakes,

So serene and calm,

What are we fighting for?

Look at the tiny ant,

So perfectly small,

What are we fighting for?

Look at the human form,

So miraculous

What are we fighting for?

Look at the clouds

So fluff and moist,

What are we fighting for?

Look at the Planet Earth,

So bountiful,

What are we fighting for?

Look at the blazing stars,

So heavenly,

What are we fighting for?

Look at the Universe,

So infinitely large,

What are we fighting for?


Mary's love letter to God,

What are we fighting for?

What are we fighting for?
