Two PEACE POEMS from India


Dear Promoters of Universal Peace



GOOD MORNING


I feel it a privilege to spread the message of Peace through peace poems on the occasion of International Day of Peace (21 September). As such, I furnish hereunder TWO of my poems exclusively composed to commemorate the International Day of Peace. It would be more effective if you can do the favor of spreading and sharing the message of peace through your mailing lists.






LET US JOIN HANDSPEACE


A global culture of peace


Should we aim to cultivate in each,


A potential force should we become


A move, the universe would welcome.




Irrespective of caste, creed and religion


Let us co-exist with love and concern,


With pride, let us hold the flags of peace


A harmonious era, let us unfold and see.




Imparting the message of peace and love


Let us pledge to be devoted and brave,


Our effort to fight for universal peace


Should scare and jolt the adverse forces.




Oh! What a delight, what a spectacle


Peace has such a delight and appeal,


Let us join hands for a genuine cause


To save humanity from conflict phase.


HOW FAR IS IT ….

The menacing clouds of war


Often pounce to create havoc,


The pigeons of peace


Scared and scattered, fly away.




The storm of hatred


The storm of enmity


The storm of death


The storm of destruction,


These devastating forces


Design the ugly face of war.




Men or women


Children or youth


Aged or the sick


Rich or the poor;


The ferocious WAR


Without care and concern


Without pity or parity


Extends its biased hand


Against the co-humans.




Ignoring the path of truce


The will and wish


Of the super powers


Ultimately would prevail.


It is the co-human


Who bears the brunt?


It is an act inhuman


That should be denounced.




On whom …


Should the blame be put?


On whom ….


Should the outcome be focused?


How far is it justified ….


To instill fear among citizens


To enforce self-declared laws


To massacre the innocents


To rain bombs on civilians


To create mass destructions


To treat civilians as criminals


To aggressively destabilize nations?




PS : If time permits, you may post comments on the poems
