Why are there wars such as these

Why are there Wars, such as these?

A poem by Doug Gempel

June 8, 2013

Why are there wars?

What is the reason,

 we are fighting this season?

We need to grasp love,

like a brand new glove,

We need peace,

and battles to cease,

for in our make up,

we need to wake up,

and end our adversity,

while we embrace our diversity,

We are, after all, human.

By God's Grace,

We are in place,

We need to embrace

each and everyone in the human race.
