Fighting for Peace

Mothers shedding tears,
As their children go to war,
Men off to fight for real,
Not kids playing any more.

It almost seems ironic,
For a dispute to cease,
When talking gets us nowhere,
We have to fight for peace.

State leaders in the office,
Flexing their sharp tongues,
Whilst soldiers fight their battle,
Killing with their guns.

Eventually one side will win,
Their victory flags will fly,
But are there any winners,
When so many had to die?

Lennon said to imagine,
"Nothing to kill or die for"
So keep the peace together,
Don't start a bloody war.
