Love and Peace

Just think how little crime, prejudice, and evil there would be,
if everyone lived for love equality happiness and to be free
and not the greed or obsession of money and power to befit.
What would the thieves steel and the generals order?
You can't steel love or happiness and you can't order it.

    True... it can't be bought, but if everyone lived for love and happiness, peace would abound. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the topic of peace and life. Best wishes in the contest!

    The downfall of man will be his greed and lack of ability to learn. Down through the pages of history from ancient times greed or wanting what others had has caused so much destruction and death...but we never learn from our past mistakes do we. You have put much knowledge into these lines as you say what we should all know....you cant buy love or happiness but if we have this then money or material things wont save the day....we pray for peace march in protest but the reality starts within our own hearts. I see your heart here and know many more will join you in peace and harmony. From the depth into reality would it not be a wonderful world. Good luck in the contest thank you for the thoughts you lay on the page and I am left to linger within.

    SO true. And than to think that most wars are about the greed and obsession for the after life's happiness.
    But even in the small things it can go wrong sometimes. Discovered that I flew this weekend a kite (not even my own) into the prizes in the same category as for two years. I suppose someone else would have earned it this year.
