A poem on "Peace" - Second Position for Usama Gohar Dahri of Class AS Level at PakTurk International Schools


Peace has been preached by many a great man;

Oft’ we hear words of peace now and then;
We pay a deaf ear to all that we hear;
And finally, look toward life with disdain.

Had only we spread the power of peace,
Our sorrows and worries would none but cease;
Our world would be Eden itself, my friend,
Our life would pass as a gentle breeze!

It’s never too late to start a good deed;
Determination and hard work is all we would need;
We can change the world if we strive for it,
Starting with the abolition of every cast and creed.

Abolition these wars, I say, and let us live as one!
We must return to Him alone, when all is said and done;
Then why shed on pointless quarrels, fighting over material things?

We can change the world with peace, and destroy every knife and gun.
By Usama Gohar Dahri of As Class at PakTurk, Islamabad
