peace is a bird not captured but called

The world war 1 struck in august
Bringing devastation to every soul
The trauma ended in september
But ,did it bring peace to the soul
Peace is a bird not capture but called
But it will not come if tension , stress, greed and religion remain above all.

The world war 2 struck and was taken to be an economic loss
But will the loss be more than the loss of the world the loss of peace
Will the pounds lost be more than the children orphaned,
ill the dollars spent be more than the raped daughters,
Will the gold spent be more than the children slaughtered,
Peace is a bird not captured but called
But it will not come if tension , stress , greed and religion remain above all.

America fought vietnam to stop spread of communism
Vietnam fought for soveriegnity against a world nation
Newspapers roared "killing of billions"
But doesl the term "billions" express the loss of
The "billons" scandalised,
The "billions" kidnaped,
The "billons" made homeless-helpless-refugees,
No for are eyes are open only for greed of thyself,
Our hands ready to take the life of everyone else,
Our thinking primitive our behaviour inhumane,
Peace is a Bird not captured but called
But it will not come if tension , stress ,greed and religion remain above all.

December brought the america iraq bomber
December brought the hunger, loss , and misery to children
Caught was Saddam
But what was its cost
Wake up call not of mother but that of an nuclear bomber,
PLace of living not houses but prisons,
Workhouses and orphanages replacind hospitals,
The tolerance power is receeding the greed increasing,
Peace is a bird not captured but called,
But it will not come if tension, stress ,greed and religion remain above all

There is no date to tell when it started
There is no reason why it started
Arab-Palestine war is but a league of death that has yet not ended
Are jews better than muslims or muslims better than jews
Whatever the debate is
Is it worth the loss of families,
Is it worth the destruction of two civilizations,
Is it worth the spread of nuclear diseases among children or
Is it worth the death of even a single person,
Peace is a bird not captured but called
But it will not come if tension , strEss , greed and religion remain above all.

If an eye for an eye rule is followed
The whole world will turn blind
Territory is no reason for war
Greed is responsible for it
Religion is no reason for war
Superiority complex is responsible for it
Peace is not the abscence of war
Peace is the presence of humanity tolerance and sanity
