Enough of war from war there is no gain <br />Only injuries, bloodshed and death and pain <br />What we need is love and peace and harmony <br />Enough of war and it's tragic history, <br />Enough of war for god and territory <br />And yet in the twenty first century <br />People are dying in war zones every day <br />For war in death and in suffering we pay, <br />Enough of war 'tis still seen worth a brag <br />To take up arms to honour your Nation's flag <br />Old long gone battles with pride we recall <br />We have not learned from the past at all <br />Far too much of war and of war men we do know <br />'Tis time that we did give peace a fair go.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/enough-of-war/
