Farewell to War - My Poem - Peace - Submitted for the OPA - Our Poetry Archive - 11 Feb 2024

 



My Poem :  Peace

 

In the dusk's embrace, whispers of peace unfold,

War-weary hearts yearn for stories yet untold.

Farewell to conflict, let swords find their sheath,

Embrace harmony, let the dove's soft feathers breathe.

 

Echoes of battles, now fading into the past,

War's bitter spell lifted, freedom at last.

Flags lowered, a symbol of unity reborn,

In the quiet aftermath, hope is sworn.

 

Tears dry, wounds heal, scars bear witness to pain,

Farewell to war, let love and compassion reign.

From the ashes of strife, let peace rise,

A new era dawns, beneath tranquil skies.
