Freedom some say is something to fight for Was that before or after the war’s won So each generation will fight this war Always finishing what was left undone
Scarce the peace ‘till another battle fought Does dust ever settle on warring tribes Pouring lead down barrels of guns have brought Only nation’s wealth paying off the bribes
One life to live, another give away Really amount to anything that much For in the end we go our merry way And only the past becomes out of touch
What matters most in life is love we share And showing each other how much we care

well put chris. but i fear as long as mankind feels there beleafs are right and every one elses is wrong there will never truly be peace upon the world.
I appreciate the value of this piece and I believe one day maybe not in this life time but one day. For now the only ones to see the ends are those that have already left…Good stuff my friend…Jesse

These last two lines of this supeb sonnet, are what we must aspire to Yankee.
