Banners held in up reaching hands <br />Writings of peace and love across our lands <br />Flowers of love, not war <br />Held out in hands by the score <br />Music with everlasting lilting tunes <br />Drift across the battlefield ruins <br />Rifles held in charging flair <br />Flowers of peace hanging there <br />Soon the winter throes upon us come <br />Flowers wilt and die <br />Flower power fading fast <br />Soon to be only joyous moments of the past <br />Age of flowers, love and song <br />Gone now, what did we do wrong <br />What happen to our dreams of love <br />And our peace doves <br />Gone with flakes of first snow <br />Gone where I do not know <br /> <br /> <br />12 July 1978<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/age-of-flowers-love-and-song/
