forever the pledge of loyality
with knife and sword and hand
gives to a mere sweet utterance
all in the name of war
it's for the country or so they say
but man nor woman can be saved
so let us hold on to our saving grace
that is a prayer for peace


i see what i write and write what i see

I second that Amen

Until he extends the circle of his compassion to all living things,
man will not himself find peace."

William

To fast the hate
can’t wait to take
I see a fist rising from the nest
where babies are blessed

How many quiet voices
know how to sing

If music could bring Peace  
sing a song to world
a hymn of grace
