Peace

Peace is not something you fight for
With bombs and missiles that kill,
Nor can it be won in a “battle of words”
One fashions by scheming and skill
For those who are greedy and warlike,
Whose avarice for power cannot cease,
Can never contribute in helping
To bring this world nearer to peace
For in seeking peace for all people
There is only one place to begin
And that is in each home and heart–
For the fortress of peace is within!
