For the world to have peace what would the sacrifice be?

Would we need to humble ourselves and show some humility?

Or should we stop being lead by greed and do more to help those in need?

Should we take a moment to understand a stranger’s point of view?

Or maybe open our hearts to someone different and new?

Be gracious and patient and loving and kind

Try it and you may be surprised to find

The price of peace is easier to pay than the retribution for hate on judgement day.

An original poem by SLF.
