War and peace can't stay toghether at one time in the same place.

War
You made the land barren
The ponds are awfully dry
There is no fish in the river
The skies don't give much hope
Rains are scarce and erratic
Butterflies are not dancing
Even birds are not singing
From lack of love, Love is dying

War
When will you come to an end?
In waiting you kept peace too long
Peace can't come in unless you go
As both of you can't stay together
You are as dark as a desert night
peace is as bright as a lovely day
No matter how tactfully you change colors
War in a peace dress can never fool us
Move over please and give peace a chance
If you think yourself as an immovable object
Peace will show you that it is an irresistible force

You are as dark as a desert night
peace is as bright as a lovely day

And we need far more lovely days, these days, Abdi-Noor.

Worlords in Somalia are wearing different uniforms each day to make us believe that there is no peace without them. They are the only obstacle to peace in Somalia. The USA is asking Sheikh Sharif, a moderate Muslim leader to take part in peace building efforts in Somalia. But how? Abdullahi Yusuf, who boasts himself as the first Somali rebel to kill a Somali soldier is in Mogadishu. It is like keeping peace and war, or love and hate, or water and fire in the same container.

Thank you Abdinoor. I wish we had many great thinkers like you.

Your brother,

Abdullahi Sheikh Ali Mohamed

I wish man would learn this, (((Abdi-Noor))). As long as they are in charge, they won't................a powerfully heartbreaking plea for change.

(((HUGS))), love and prayer, Karla.

War is a terrible thing, it is the antithesis of love. Victor

Love is dying from lack of love

that is a frightening thought...a sobering thought. As usual, you have expressed your thoughts exceptionally, Abdi-Noor.

This poem sums up war through vivid pictures and emotions. I especially enjoyed the line "War in a peace dress can never fool us".
