why war?

Rain drops fall, rivers flow
And oceans span the land
Clear sky, burning sun
And miles of desert sand

My blue sky is your sky
We look at the same sun
Different lives and different lands
As people we are one

The air I breath is free to cross
The boundaries that we claim
The constant force of nature
On this earth treats us the same

The mid day sun of warmth and cheer
That disappears at night
Is really shining down on you
To make your day as bright

Life can be a simple thing
Its purpose is: to “be”
No matter what we might believe
Our love can set us free

In your world as in mine
Flowers bloom so sweet
In earth’s beauty we can share
If ever we should meet

This instant called the present
Forever always new
The same moment in time
Is “now” for me, as well as you

I will live and I will love
And search for reasons why
You will live and you will love
But in battles we will die

In a list

    wise wise poem indeed!

    Your imagery really spoke to our hearts....
    reaching thru the layers as soothing balm
    kind and tenderly.

    That last lines bring us to the open windows of
    reality;
    I will live and I will love
    And search for reasons why
    You will live and you will love
    But in battles we will die

    do you remember that old saying...not sure how it goes...
    YOU can win all the battles and boldly lose the war.
    i can't remember...

    great poem! thankyou for encouraging our hearts!
