And peace fell upon me <br />Like dew upon a flower <br />When I saw many others <br />Gather about at my call <br />Hold my hand, steady my step <br />And strengthen our cause, <br />“Peace to all, we say <br />Shalom, Amen! <br />‘A call for peace – Universal’ <br />Is the war cry we wield” <br />That hope is not lost <br />Others too weep for all <br />I am not alone I have friends <br />To rely upon and rise a call <br />For hearts to heal <br />Souls to love other men <br />As own self, feel the pain <br />The blood that flows <br />Same as yours breathes life <br />To stop bloodshed <br />To stop hate and spite <br />To stop fanatic love <br />Of caste or colour or creed <br />To spark love in every heart <br />To fill each soul with peace <br />Unto this end <br />We have gathered all <br />Friends together <br />Friends forever <br />Raising a clarion call <br />We befriend one and all <br />As we gather from far and near <br />With offerings of poems <br />On brotherhood, tolerance <br />Faith, love and above all peace <br />In the sylvan moonlit woods <br />Of poemhunter each twilight hour!<br /><br />Angelina Pandian<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/call-for-peace-universal/
