Peace and Brotherhood

Since the very beginning of God's Creation,

Hate and strife has occurred between nation and nation.

Why can't people abide by the Golden Rule and do good;

Why can't people shun evil and dwell in brotherhood?

Why do evil despots think it necessary to others malign?

They will be dealt with since God says, "Revenge will be Mine!"

The Good Book says there will always be war and rumors of war,

But, why can't governments foster a brotherhood of love and rapport?

Humankind cries out for a world of peace and brotherhood!

Why not let it begin in your very own neighborhood?
