the birds were chirping---

butterflies played in the air;

then there was gunfire.

fires burned down our trees;

so we prayed for the rain to come:

mud stole our homes.

evaporating...

giving up water...daily,

the sea remains full.

day ends with sunset;

eventide brings on the night;

twilight steals the show.

winter takes her rest;

spring now ushers in the day.

birds tweet and build nests.

statues cannot live;

just be the sum of themselves:

motionless and dead

where love and peace are,

hate cannot find a place here;

neither can war be.

in this world of war,

flowers no longer grow here:

earth's peaceful womb cries.

deep in my mind's womb,

in the web of pregnant hope,

silent words linger.
