THE WORDS TO SAY

I wish someday through these writings
They hear my words the world around
That would put an end to this fighting
To give all cultures a treasured sound

When no more bombs will be heard
Sound of silence through out the land
I pray God gives me the right words
With this pen I now hold in my hand

That might help to bind us all together
Maybe someday our world will unite
Upon this earth all would be brothers
This would give so many such delight

This is just my dream or even an illusion
Since that day God put my pen in hand
God spare our world of more confusion
Then keep all safe through out our lands

I wish no more lives would be destroyed
If only dear Lord you will guide my pen
Then this world would feel so much joy
I pray these horrid wars come to an end

If I only knew all the right words to say
That may bring tears to the leaders eyes
We could all know peace then someday
We wouldn’t send our soldiers off to die
