War and Peace
SK Iyer
"The war is on",
The saviour
of mankind declared,
"To bring in peace!
"The war is on",
Yet
another declared,
"To bring in peace!"
Killed many and sent to
heavens
to mingle with
stars of martyrdom!
Fortunate are the
departed,
Recipients of real peace!
"We've brought in
peace!",
saviours of mankind declared,
"Those are great souls,
who
sacrificed their lives,
may their noble souls
rest in peace!"
The
living cried for the dead,
groaned for relief the wounded,
and the
saviours rested,
whilst in peace
the departed rested!
