Imagine my friends. There are no wars.

Imagine there is no war, my friend.
(My December wish. The wars are done. The world can heal, and every child is safe in our world. Our leaders in our world. Sending medicine, food and ensuring shelter/ safety for every person.)

1- Dear child,
the world weeps blood.
Whole world blinded by hate and separation.
Who will tell the child?
He was born with no chance or opportunity,
born to learn to survive daily.
Living in refugees’ camps. Unwanted and forgotten.

2- By a River.
I drove by a river with food, water and medicine on a Red Cross mission.
I saw bodies floating in the river.
Me and my soldiers dragged the bodies to the shore.
24 people. Old people and children.
Beaten to death and left.
Me and my soldiers cried for the people killed for the sake of religion.
We prayed they found a better place.
I wondered did God see the pain and the suffering of our world?
I learned this day how cold man can be.

3- Today the world is bleeding.

Once USA, a friend to peace.

Now a loud, hateful leader.

Want to create chaos.

Once USA send food and medicine to countries in need.

Now we send planes and weapons.

I pray to the morning sun.

I imagine in a sweet dream.

No child lived in a war zone, and no-one went to sleep hungry.

Please God of life and death.

I need to know one day of peace.
