Some Words Speak for Themselves
Some words just speak for
themselves ..
They need no advocate,
or poet to recite them ..
HOPE
is surely, but one of them ..
And should be
bottled, clearly labelled,
kept safely,
then savoured and saved ..
LOVE
is another such word surely
worth dying for ..
Believe me, wars are still
fought over it
and tears frequently shed ..
PEACE
shall serve here, as my final
example,
the stuff dreams are made of
and a contradiction
in terms, since man fights so
many wars
in its name, just to achieve it ..
Yet today, it remains
distant and so far out of reach ..
