Peace And War | Lukman Nurudeen Adeniyi

Peace and war are not relatable
Evil for war, good for peace
So, forbid evil and wrongful transgression.

Edify people that war is unpalatable
Spread peace, a service to folks,
Prove humanity is a single nation.

Strive to advocate peace, so imperturbable
Peacemakers do ably restrain all barbarities
Ever to uphold peace — their mission.
