Poems for peace

POEMS FOR PEACE

PEACE

Peace is a flower,
Peace is a bird.
Peace is the sun,
Peace is the moon.
Peace is you,
Peace is me.
Peace is what you want!

(Ellie Friedman)

A WORLD OF PEACE?
The world is round, the world is wide.
What about the folks inside?
There is peace in places, but not in all.
That's too bad for our big blue ball.
People of all colors we can find.
To live in peace, we must be kind.
Living together, white and black.
Love and forgiveness is what we lack.
Peaces for all is what we seek.
For our souls, we hope to keep.

WORLD WAR I

The First World War, also known as Great War, was a war fought primarily in Europe, which began on July 28, 1914 and ended on November 11, 1918, when Germany asked the armistice and later on 28 June 1919, the warring countries signed the Treaty of Versailles.

More than 9 million combatants were killed, an extraordinarily high figure, given the technological and industrial sophistication of belligerents, with its consequent tactical stalemate. He is considered the fifth deadliest conflict in history of mankind.

He received the epithet world, because in it they were involved all major industrial and military powers of the day, divided into two opposing alliances.

Songs for the peace

There are some songs letters talking about peace. I'd like you enjoy them!

"Imagine"

JOHN LENNON

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

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 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

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will live as one

"Blowing in the wind"

BOB DYLAN 

 

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you can call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes, how many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, how many times can a man turn his head
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes, how many times must a man look up
Before he can really see the sky?
Yes, how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
