Excerpt
These Nuclear Weapons
I read the news
I saw the goof
Of stubborn men
Who know it all?
And show it to all
Of brilliant men
Of Valliant men
Ready to kill us all
With their weapons
Even in our kitchens
And our little kittens
I learnt of the weapons
Of warfare so massive
Being amassed
By strong leaders
Ready to kill my readers
Please let us stop
And save our world
For once
From these nuclear weapons
That could destroy
This globe
That has been
Since the days of old
Handed to us
Even with trust
By our fore fathers
And blessed for us by God
Please let us all
Not turn our blessings
Into curses
Not because we are all bosses
Trying to show off our blessings
And our strength
Even while gambling and betting
With the lives of millions
And trillions
Who do not wish to know?
Or like the show
Made out of nuclear weapons
And nuclear powers
Amassed by the world powers
Please stop
Please Stop
And save our world
These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
Timeless wisdom and advice on the art of living for today’s young and old: The art of thinking, the art of loving, the art of working, the art of leadership, the art of growing old.
