Pray for peace
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
I’m tire of violence and war.

“Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say that I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one”
― John Lennon, Imagine
Pray for Peace
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”
― Martin Luther King Jr.
“An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind.”
― Mahatma Gandhi
“Let the first act of every morning be to make the following resolve for the day:
– I shall not fear anyone on Earth.
– I shall fear only God.
– I shall not bear ill will toward anyone.
– I shall not submit to injustice from anyone.
– I shall conquer untruth by truth. And in resisting untruth, I shall put up with all suffering.”
― Mahatma Gandhi
“Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.”
― Albert Einstein“
Dad, how do soldiers killing each other solve the world’s problems?”
― Bill Watterson, Calvin and Hobbes: Sunday Pages 1985-1995
I once walked on soft grass with great men. Old battlefields in Europe. 20,000 men graves.
Once proud Soldiers. They were fighting the last war. How did we honor them?
Soldiers don’t want their children to fight and die like them. They want their children to know a peaceful world.
Please pray for peace. Don’t raise your fist. Open you arms and embrace love and kindness.
War is fair. Kill without thoughts or concern. Peace is hard. We must forgive and stop the killing.
Please pray for peace. Make the leaders know. Every life is worthwhile.
Coyote/John Castellenas
Another beautiful post, if only every heart and soul could see one another in peace, leaders striving for peace, not power. My current favourite song is Reba McEntire “Give this world back to God”. I don’t understand why we can’t just accept each other in peace and not kill one another because of our amazing uniqueness.

I agree my friend. Every life had value. I don’t want my Grandchildren to fight in wars.

You are welcome dear Pat. Few leaders/people speak of peace.

For sure, John. May be because they don’t really know what it is.
