This poem was written for the English Festival held in our school last December 2013 when I was Fourth Year. It talks about the personification of peace.

PEACE

I come to bring mankind a joy

That sinks within their very heart

And makes a world of memories

That links men e'en when they're apart

I come to bring mankind a smile

That lights up e'en the darkest night

And brings a wave of warmth and grace

That shines on us a love so bright

I come to bring mankind a laugh

That washes all the bitter tears

And springs a fountain from the hand

That inundates all horrid fears

I come to bring mankind a hope

That crumbles down the hardened fist

And evocates a universe

That touches all, for I exist
