THE PRICE OF PEACE
It is easy to say “Love Thy Neighbour”,
But what if your neighbour kills another ?
Hatred, that results, can be a labour,
After war it is hard to recover.
Love is required, in order to bring peace.
You have to forgive and endure this pain.
You must heed this thought, if war is to cease.
If you keep hatred, war will come again.
This rule is no use, for just one person.
All of us have to do this together.
Without this end, failure will be certain.
This result will be quite an endeavour.
It’s not easy for people to do this.
Without this, war will be an abyss.
[will this ever be possible ?]
