Enough of your weapons <br />To window power and arrogance! <br />Enough of your words of justice <br />to defend the defenseless! <br />Enough of this bloodshed! <br /> <br />Enough of the tribal wars, <br />religious wars, political wars! <br />Smash your guns and war heads! <br />Enough of the blood pacts <br />And own interests to protect! <br /> <br />The human heart cannot be <br />Conquered by revenge and hatred <br />Only love can bend the heart of steel <br />Of the most aggressive and violent! <br />Only love can make peace dwell again. <br /> <br />Not by war, not by weapons! <br />Not over the corpses and blood <br />of men. women and children <br />should we build up peace again <br />but only from the heart of love!<br /><br />Elizabeth Padillo Olesen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/enough-of-your-weapons/
