A POEM FOR PEACE
By: Thaddeus Anim-Somuah Ghana

Most days, when I think about the future, it’s full of hopes and dreams. A picture of perfection and a step towards what heaven could be. Fun, Adventure, Success Living a great life
Today, I see war in the present; It’s full of death and destruction The reality of despair and a step into what distress can be Crime, Homelessness, Hunger Fear of no life
Today, when I think about the future, it’s full of struggles and sacrifices A picture of priorities and a step towards what normality could be No violence, No fear, No threats Staying alive
Tomorrow, I see peace in the present; it’s full of nothing A picture of a blank white flag and a place with no need for more steps Peace, Rest, Freedom Peace, the foundation for all life The foundation for hopes and dreams Peace, the foundation for future prosperity
