A Time of Favor
When will the hoped-for time of peace come when we
no longer wage war to gain one more inch of foreign soil?
when will the time come when we no longer annihilate
innocent civilians with our massive bombardments? When
will a time of peace and healing begin that calls forth the
frightened children of Palestine, Northern Ireland,
Afghanistan, Rwanda, Israel, Bosnia and Iraq, so they
can once again play their needful games in the shattered
streets where their dead once walked, and join their
hands again in trust - their innocence restored.
