104 M. L. N. W

A Poem by Chris Smith Welshpoetcs

Take the flower
Put it in the gun
Because a mad man
Only pulls the trigger

No more fighting
No blood in the streets
Blow someone a kiss
Don't blow them away

Share these four letters
M. L. N and W
Say those words in what they mean
Say them out loud, and be heard

Make Love Not War.

a penetrating message that needs to be read by all. If only it would reach to the recesses of those that need it most. Sad, what this world is coming to. I feel its madness and only feel sorrow.
meaningful and profound. I absolutely love those first few lines.

"No more fighting
No blood in the streets
Blow someone a kiss
Don't blow them away"

This was by far my favorite stanza my friend! It takes a special kind of person to try spread the good word out there...a message we all need to propagate and echo into the depths of this world! Well put my friend!
M.L.N.W.!!

This is one of those poems that not only sounds good to the ears, but also conveys a very important message. "Take the flower / put it in the gun" -- I liked those lines especially.

Loved this...powerful message and imagery packed into so few words. I'm no pacifist but I dont believe in these pointless wars and deaths for no reason
