War
From time immemorial
You have menacingly remained
Despite your costly nature
In spite of your cruel features
War, you strangely stun me
By what spell our reasoning curtailed?
How have you, for so long prevailed?
Are we not the civilization with astute repute?
Why associate bloodbath to dispute?
Leaving casualties we cannot compute.
You of high stake,
Leaving destruction in your wake,
You will be forced to depart,
For we vow to deny you part,
In our emerging new world order.
We have to put aside our differences
Pull together our resources
To flush out this rubbish
And build a world of peace
A world of peace unknown
A haven of tranquillity untold.
poem by Emmanuel Oduro
