War

• Liljana Bilandzic, Grade 7

People stop and look around,
then tell me what you see,
All the gun and the bombs,
the tears and all the greed,

They kill the young and the old,
not respect for their lives,
its the selfishness and empty hearts,
and their power that seems to strive,

The world has lost its love and peace,
and this is you all can see,
That's why we should unite as one,
to bring back love and eternity

Next time you sit and watch the news,
and its war that you can see,
stand right up and walk away,
and say a prayer for you and me.
