Peace on Earth???

Promise Despoiled!

Misguided by the vulgar god of Greed,
When ‘Want’ and ‘Will’ suppress the Human Need,
Fair Peace cannot exist,
‘less parity persist,
Abundance in this World for all to feed!

The Ideal!

Aspiration!

Not for a lack of gnawing want,
Nor for a feeble will;
Fearful another’s need to blunt,
Their hunger pangs to still!

Not in pursuit of transient gain,
Or still-born accolade;
Such selfish aims treat with disdain,
Fairness for all crusade;
A winsome serenade!
