Protect Our Children Poem by Hebert Logerie

Protect Our Children

Rating: 5.0


We want Peace
For our children in the Middle East
From Israel to Lebanon
From Congo to Gabon
From the West to the East
We want Peace
Not stupid wars
Not obnoxious outlaws
Big guns can only kill
Big tanks can only distill
Pain, misery and death
We want Peace on Earth
We want Peace everywhere
We abhor injustice and terror
We want Peace in the North
We want Peace in the South
Our innocent children are being killed
Our fellow human beings are being killed
It is a big deal, it a sick and sad thing
We don’t want to hear bang, bang
We want to hear people laugh
Not cry, not suffer and swimming in a blood bath
We want friends to be happy and elated
Not being tortured and executed
We want Peace
For our children in the Middle East
We want Peace in the North
We want Peace in the South
There is one God, there is one Love
Let’s protect our children and each other
There is one God, there is one Love
Let’s pray for Peace and let's love each other
We want Peace and Love for every one
From Israel to Lebanon
We want absolute Protection for children
We want Hope for our fellow men and women.

Peace is the need of the hour and tolerance. True brotherhood and love should prevail, the yearning of a million hearts is reflected in your poems. Spread Peace, Oh Poet, may its fragrance fill the whole earth!

Human being dullness hinders men to perceive that the money waisted in the wars if used to feed the children of the world, would become the planet in a true oasis.

You really say it like it is. Straight out, up front and in our face. I like that. Very stong words that must come from strong feeling. A poem deserving of much respect and admiration. DC

I think most decent, Christian or religious people, want peace among themselves and in all nations, Herbert, and your poem is a positive contribution to all those who wish to live peacefully among all mankind. Sadly, there are those who despise people different than them, societies happier than them, or religions different than their own. They resort to terrorism because they are too cowardly to face their sworn enemy face to face. They kill innocent women, children, and even those of their own faith with no respect for human life. There have always been people like this, and sadly, there always will be, for no amount of good will or friendship will change their minds. A excellent write, Herbert. Carl.

The only way to harnish true peace is to have peace with yourself. I hope you find your piece brother.
