Give me a piece of peace: An intriguing poem about War & Peace

by | Nov 22, 2023 | Poetry for Peace

Give me a piece of peace

Give me a piece of peace

 

I don’t want rainfall

I don’t want any mountains

Not even any flourishing fountains

I am begging to you all-

For a piece of peace

O all, I am not seeking a bliss

Give me a bag full of gentle breeze

For this precipice, I will hold this love lease 

No country and map will be on my lap

I will only carry a human flag

If I don’t bear any other sacks,

assume this is my only existential tag

Don’t get me wrong If I am outside of your throng

Maybe I won’t be able to sing your patriotic songs

I don’t want any innovation

Nor any modernization and large bridge 

I am begging to you all-

Only for a piece of peace
