War Poem by Cosmic Dreamer

War

Rating: 5.0


Hatred is such a powerful emotion,
Three letters that create such commotion.
War is a word that bares no goals,
It shall ravage land and blacken souls...

Warriors chant their blood thirsty song,
Each side believing they're not wrong.
Instead of life they only breed death,
While innocence breathe's it's last breath...

Hero's are born yet soon they die,
Families despair and children cry.
For war is a beast that knows no rules,
It's a game that is only played by fools...

Politicians have never witnessed the blood,
Or the men that are lost in the mud.
A game of chess they seem to play,
With the life's of men in a cavalier way...

The choice is simple for us to make,
To deny the demon for mankind's sake.
For as long as both shall hold a breath,
Then war shall deal us only death...

Spread the love... The peace will follow...

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Fighting war's for peace is like having sex for virginity... It just ain't gonna work...
My favourite quote on the futility of war comes from Bertrand Russell who states... 'War does not determine who is right... Only who is left...' Get wise people, we can be the lesson for future generations...
