Let it be peace, <br />Not war. <br />Let dying cease. <br />Remove the sore. <br /> <br />To settle the argument <br />And finish the discussion, <br />War is not the instrument <br />To know who is better in position. <br /> <br />The answer to the conflict, <br />Is not peace in the dress of war. <br />Try not to afflict. <br />Don’t make the dry bones be more. <br /> <br />Yes, we have democracy. <br />It’s a type of government <br />That is popular in the society <br />But never gamble it to bad investment. <br /> <br />Oh kings and rulers, <br />You who sit in high positions, <br />Please be good leaders <br />Of your people and respective nations. <br /> <br />Keep the conflict between you <br />And let it not affect society. <br />You must have a mind renewed <br />And do not make people uneasy. <br /> <br />Please approve my request <br />That will you stop war <br />So that we who are in the quest <br />Will continue to fly and soar! <br /> <br />Never use your nation’s materials <br />To settle your misunderstanding <br />And do not be animals <br />Who will make destruction the king. <br /> <br />Oh kings with favored titles, <br />Let it be peace, not war. <br /> <br />Copyright © 2009 by Obed Dela Cruz <br /> <br />(September 5,2009; Marikina City) <br /> <br />(To use this poem in a legal way, please email the author at princeobed_dc@yahoo.com but you cannot own the poem because you will be violating such in computer ethics, information systems, intellectual property, copyright, and other rights)<br /><br />Obed dela Cruz<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/let-it-be-peace-not-war/
