A Poem for Peace
We can’t have peace, we don’t
believe we can
Until every person belongs to
the family of man
We must say to humanity today
that peace is the only way
Who are we? We are you and I
We can’t have peace if we don’t
try
We must care about each other every
where in every way,
Then peace would be just a breath away
Riding on transparent wings here to
stay!
World peace will begin when there is
peace within, each of us
