Stop the wars

by Amanda   Aug 3, 2006


Stop these stupid wars,
stop people dying,
Innocent families,
and children crying,

Stop the shooting,
stop all the pain,
What do these people,
think they'll gain?

People living in fear,
ready to run away,
Let them live in peace,
and have a happy day,

I can't bear to see this,
I want to help them through,
Watching people suffer,
tears my heart in two,

Stop all of this nonsense,
what is this fighting worth,
One day I hope i get my wish,
for simple peace on earth.

    I think this poem would have more impact with proper punctuation.

    Example:

    Stop all this nonsense!
    What is this fighting worth?
    One day I hope I get my wish,
    For simple peace on Earth.

    A few simple changes to commas can make the world of difference.

    A nice succinct poem that I appreciated.

    Absolutely agree. You expressed yourself well with clarity and force without getting into a rant or sentimental.
    If only the powers that be would read your poem.
