History bears witness to atrocitiesA
Nations on nations have wroughtB
Mankind s never satisfied for lessC
A perennial immoral pandemic it isD
Immense suffering it has broughtB
Uproot world s reeling economiesA
Recurring diseases and crisesA
Besides the invasion being foughtB
Even superpowers are speechlessE
Twin evils of wars and diseasesF
Wreck the fragile peace we ve gotG
Mankind s not learnt past lessonsH
Genghis Hitler and OzymandiasH
All powerful once reduced to dustI
Not lessons enough for all of usH
Can we erase forms and systemsH
Keeping our own quite intactJ
Wars entail loss of innocent livesH
Ruin hard built infrastructuresH
Makes the invader a pariah to rutK
No virtue or trust one had onceH
Doing no one any good henceH
For more power fame or whatK
There s no justification or justiceH
All religions clearly preach peaceH
It s never late to make a turnaboutL
Learnt in all our formative yearsH
All through our schooling livesH
To care to share to have a heartM
Reap what you sow the Bible saysH
The law of Karma too so mentionsH
It s now or never to make a startM
Let s stop more harm and deathsH
Be among the respected leadersH
Be a world hero and play your partM
Stop any more wars and invasionsH
Go down in History not as a curseH
But a blessing in disguise or whatK
Let s all forever embrace peaceH
A good life is never ever a breezeH
To live and let live is always an artM
A science too with some prejudiceH
In faith hope and God s blessingsH
