War It Is Raging Again In Iraq Poem by Francis Duggan

We live in the same World and to live we breathe air
But many must feel life is very unfair
Another senseless war is raging in Iraq
Where right to life once more is under attack

In Iraq and Syria many war zones today
Where poor people from their homes are driven away
In thousands every day across borders they do flee
Who would wish for the life of a war refugee?

Wars are being waged over religion, culture and land
That people cannot solve their differences in a peaceful way seems hard to understand
Since the war supposed to end all wars was fought decades ago millions in wars have died
That war men never learn from past wars cannot be denied

Thousands of war refugees are fleeing across borders today
Some of them on trucks and some some of them walking to the nearest refugee camp on their way
And war it is raging again in Iraq
Where right to life once more is under attack.
