The Conumdrum Of War Poem by Kaila George

The Conumdrum Of War



I am on my knees

As I say a little prayer to thee

In my minds eyes I see death

In my heart I feel the pain

Why must we live to the music of war?

That condemns our souls to damnation

Why must lost souls forever be taken from this realm

Just because humanity has the need to say they are right in what they believe

We continue to waste the lives that we are given to lead

We continue to take the unexpected lives of the innocent soul

Why must this be forever a part of humanity?

Where is the harm in giving your heart and soul?

In the right of all that lives in faith and harmony

I have said it before and I will say it again

We must choose the path that will set our souls free

Give up the wars that condemn our societies

Give your heart to thine neighbors, friends, and family

Let the conundrum of war burn out the fire of hatred

Moreover, once more dare I dream?

Why not make this dream become real

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

i wouldn't mention it except that you are not consistent in your spelling of conundrum. but i would rather have you submit your poems with typos than not submit it at all. i chose not to work for war in the seventies; instead i worked as a civilian in a new york state hospital for two years. BUT i do not condemn completely all wars. of course i agree with your sentiments toward war as expressed in poem. i don't believe in God, but as a child i was taught that God gives men free will. another mistake i believe God made!
