Peace Is Not Marching Away To Be Killed.
The son never saw his father marching away to be killed.
His father was killed before he was born.
His mother never spoke of men ‘marching to the war’ or ‘marching to defeat terrorism,’
Or even ‘marching to save country, race and religion.’
She always spoke of men marching away to be killed.
She was first orphaned and then widowed when her father and husband,
Marched away to be killed.
Peace to her is the men she loves, not
Marching away to be killed.
Lovely writing here..
