Let white flowers bloom over the earth,
And the waking world wage the war against war.
You and I, let us join our hands together,
Again and again, to spread the word of love...
Princely music and inspirational tunes,
Exquisite melodies and resounding resonance,
Antique lyrics and soul-stirring tones.
Can they ever equal a single minute of silence?
Emotion-instilling articles and touching stories,
Fascinating books and a million poems rare,
Undulatingly, even endlessly if released, will still
Lack the meaning conveyed by a single drop of tear.
Every plant and animal knows what we do not,
Aristocratic and superior, we consider ourselves.
Rising animals, the pinnacle of Evolution!
That we are still uncivilized, we do not realize,
Heartfelt gratitude and courtesies are in apparition.
Oh white birds! Will you never begin to sing
Until the whole of barbaric humanity is destroyed,
Till the cries of war and destruction cease to ring?
Oh white flowers! Will you not start to bloom until
Frenzy and madness remove their hold on the world?
Life seems to revolve around selfish greed, desire and lust,
Or competition and accumulation of wealth and gold.
Vast amounts of destruction reduce the Earth to dust,
Even as we sit by silently, watching it all unfold.
Comments, please.
