The pathways to war are many but the road to peace is only one.

Poem Artwork

From page to page I turned papers
I visited websites and their links
I listened radios and watched TV´s
I have read articles on Somalia
Looking on thirty titles per day
Covering a total of 900 in a month
Finding all of them destructive
As they preached war and terror
Or implicated to financing the war
With the exception of titles on Turkey
They shined amid rubbles of despair
Never coming anywhere close to war
But always inspiring, injecting hope
into hearts dying from lack of hope
Thank you Turkey for your peace Model
May other actors follow your footsteps
Amen Insha Allah.

this is the kind of intervention
we need above all else
more of this, more please

Thank you, Abdi-Noor for sharing
and peace to you all your days
and lasting peace to Somalia

where the light of human compassion flickers, peace is always a probable result - I forwarded your poem to a family of friends I have in Istanbul - I wish you love and peace my friend - Jon Michael

In a warring world, the pathways to peace are few. But there are those trying to come to peaceful solutions and hopefully more will come to Somalia soon.
