As dawn breaks forth and war ‘s cold sway
Leaves people displaced in the light of day.
It is time to choose which path to take
To stop the killing ,repair and remake.
The world is watching with bated breath,
Wondering how to stop the stream of death
While voices of the past whisper what is near
Impending doom is not made clear.
So, where is the guiding light?
The supreme forces that will stop the fight.
Where thoughts of peace override grief and fear
And resolutions are found when the dust clouds clear.
Let us be a beacon and do what is right.
Upturn the evil and these people’s plight.
Become brethren and not choose a side
Displaying love that should flow worldwide.
