Come along with me now to a place of sublime peace.

Sunset at the End of the Earth > www.jamesdevere.com

Imagine what sunset at the end of the Earth is.

What is such a beautiful sunset like?

Golden sand filling a sinking sun,

No one but you and I.

Hear me now warriors,

That that such a place does exist.

Negating all your hatred,

A home of safety, peace and bliss.

Walk away from your violence!

Join me across the miles…

Hold my hand and walk toward tomorrow toward the setting sun,

See – your dead eyes now fill with smiles!

Put aside all weaponry,

All tiny insolent grudges,

Change your war march to soft treadings,

That waves at Earth’s end transfoms gently to smudges.

As the sun sets at the end of our Earth,

No blood runs and no tear do assail.

This place all you haters,

All warmongering thought HERE does fail.

So if you are contemplating killing,

Or bringing suffering to any soul,

Think about this verse my friend,

For on war the sun here sets now and…

All vanities and hatred here doth end.

    Nice poem. I’d also wished that we all could live in peace and harmony. I’m sick of all the wars that is happening right now.
