Samples

STRENGTH IN UNITY The haunting nightmares and sequences That the ruinous wars often result in, Challenge us with dire consequences To ignore or support co-human insults. The deep pain and the haunting sorrow That emerges from the ensuing conflicts, Challenge humankind with a tomorrow Wherein, an ocean of miseries reflects. By upholding and fortifying ‘peace’ We should challenge the arch-rivals, By demonstrating the might of peace We should prove the power of our will. The challenges of frequent conflicts We should conquer with weapons of peace, The challenges of revenge and rifts We can raze with harmony and peace. The hostile and ruthless calls for war With our insightful wit, should we shun; Transforming thoughts into peace-showers To fortify a spirited unity that wins. Violence should not provide us a scope To counter it with identical response, Consequences should not deter the hopes To desist us from establishing peace.

There will never be peace in this world, friend. War burns too deeply in our blood.
