Peace

NafisaSB

Power is great
Undoubtedly
But peace is greater
Invariably 

For power corrupts
When wrongly used-
Our very ideals
Are abused
Order fails
Blackmail starts
Centre curtails
Science and arts

But peace, possible
In a democracy
Unites minds
And hard hearts too
None will ever
Its presence rue
For it is better
Than mobocracy

Peace, indispensable
For every nation
Thus ought to be
Our designation.

    was our collective
    religion...'

    i thank you all for your response, and sincerely wish that peace prevails and reigns all over the world
    it's a big challenge now, but the world leaders need to open their eyes before catastrophe strikes
