Peace on Earth

poem by: Allan P Stevens
Written on Nov 16, 2017

-
With conflict and strife in distant lands
Spreading terror upon urban streets
Are they just fighting over desert sand?
As across the ocean flee the refugees 
-
Puppet masters keep pulling the strings
And the politicians dance to the tune
They treat us like disposable nothings
Over which there is little we can do
-
Take a good look at our wonderful world
You will find that truth is not all it seems
See the deceitful web that’s been curled
Observe the hidden agenda and schemes
-
Today I wonder what a human life is worth
As those people suffer and children scream
It appears to me that “Peace on earth”
Has now become “The impossible dream”
