Elusive Peace Poem by Tony Adah

Everywhere is war
Guns and bombs
Rumble and grumble
A bomb drops
A mother Or Child is gone
A missile flies in the east
And the whole world trembles
An anti missile aircraft
Passes over Ukraine
And western Europe
Catches a flu
World peace is growing wing
To fly away
And leave chaos in the world

I do not know
where the world's
flower children have gone to
We wait every day
Fondly believing that
The confetti of peace
Will be poured on the world
Oh, elusive peace!
