| Fragile Peace |
| Our planet weeps in mourning
Acid rain falling like tears Remnants of peace and love deceased Is there no one left to grieve? The lust for supremacy prevails War and calamity its constant ally Our world on the brink of disaster Terrorism its funeral pyre Barely a meagre congregation Accompanies Earth�s hearse to the gate Voices united in a dirge of despair Will no one lead us through the madness? Shrouded in an insecure veil of fear Crying out in sorrow for all that is lost At the graveside of humanity Our future�s epitaph remains unwritten� Restore our fragile peace, before it is too late! ~*~*~ Copyright(c)2004M.A.Anderson Brisbane, Australia Word count: 106 |
