World Peace

I've found the solution for peace on earth in only 13 words!!!

World Peace 
will only begin

When the love for all things 
finally 
ends

I agree . Power and love for money and other material things is causing a lot of wars and injustices in the world.
Nice write

a very thought provoking poem..
indeed true greed for material things gets us no where..
but can we lived without them? that's a question to ponder
yet again its part of human nature
we just have to trim it down i guess..
like the balance of all things.
great poem.

Succinct and lucid, although in my opinion wrong. I believe world peace will come only after everyone has true love for each other. Lack of love is why we have so much war, crime and marital problems. Perhaps you meant love of material things, such as money. Then I would agree with you. But, it's your poem and certainly is well-written and easy to read. I like the physical structure with the header and bottom lines, or whatever they're called.

excellent, thought provoking stuff....And sadly, very true

This is short and powerful

A counterintuitive solution, but it makes sense when you think about it. I know this is very minor, but I really like the format of the poem...it looks like a scroll with the lines framing it.

God is love and Love never fails.
But not just any love will do...love for goodness and righteousness

Nicely thought out sentiments within your 13 words but perhaps one more word in the form of "inanimate objects" in place of "things". I can see many problems within the "things"; True religion has a lot to answer for, but more so man interoperates the words spoken by various gods for their own end due to their desire to Own "things" be they oil gold jewels or just plain Power. For me world peace is but a distant fantasy which will only come within "the end of days"
