Unparallel,
perpetual, and universal,
Cherished, desired and treasured by all,
Yet
defies language, culture, or class,
And so elusive to
grasp.
Promises the
young hope, security, and felicity,
To grow up free of hate, suffering, and
hostility.
Passes warmth and friendship from hand to hand,
While shames
wars and terrorism from land to land.
Challenges us to mend shattered
feelings,
Also to spread compassion and sincere greetings.
Makes no judgment
as to what has been done,
But forgives and blesses every single one.
Opens
the future with sunshine and a smile,
While closes the bitter past in a
commendable style.
Time to lay down
our deadly arms,
And start worshipping its essential charms.
If
civilizations were ever to thrive,
The human race must survive.
To share
out planet happily together,
The answer is global peace
forever!
