As you sail in sea of peace You see huge rocks of war You can't see or touch one Unless you feel the other When they are in war People cry for peace When they get peace They invite war They can't stay with peace Yet can't stay without peace Some people are enemies of peace They can't see the light of peace Until they taste the horrors of war��

The oxymoron of Man... We are just so darn stupid..
Being motivated by greed and jelousy, that the bully boys always seem to want more and more and more and more and.........

Yes, yes ... to know love, it seems we need to experience its opposite. Sadly, for then we'd see the light of peace instead of needing to taste the horrors of "war". Powerful write Abdi-Noor; relevant to the levels of war.

Abdi Noor that is why I say we are still uncivillized.
This poem is a fine example of our paradoxical ways.
Blessings to you and yours!

WAR AND PEACE illustrates well one of the more painful paradoxes of human existence. At some point we will have to get tired enough of the one--WAR--to cultivate and live harmoniously in the other--PEACE. Thank you for a great and thought-provoking poem--

True,people are never satisfied, always grasping for something out of reach. St Augustin said, "my heart is retless until it rest in you" some will not be at peace until they are in the arms of Jesus.

this applies even to interpersonal relationships. I'm dealing with an ex-husband right now who has to stir up trouble...God forbid that things go along smoothly! And his behaviors leave me struggling to maintain peace within myself. Your poetry is universal, Abdi. Keep on keeping on!

Well said. And there will always be wars and rumors of wars till the end of civilization and the second coming of Christ.

When you are in war
You will cry for peace
When you are in peace
You just invite war

Seems like we humans just never learn, do we?
