WAR!
Such a small word
to make a world gasp.

Profanity, procreation.
Even in slang, have more letters.

What power and fear
are packed in any other
three-letter word?

Nouns, verbs, adjectives;
mingle into groups,
making moonbeams
in a crystal ball.

Words!
They turn a rainy afternoon
into a sun drenched plantation.

They convey such wonder,
beauty, joy and hope.

We give them to our children.
Tied with blue and pink ribbons.

They express what we feel;
see, hear and think.

With all our knowledge,
legacy and history.

Do we still need WAR??
