the world weeps: enough!

set Palestine’s people free

 love’s the only way

❤

stokers of hate’s fire

tried to bury love’s dissent

but buried good seed

❤

we’re now growing strong

our shoots dance in winds of change

love, bring Spring’s revolt!

❤

by Uilleam Ó Ceallaigh

Seek truth and justice.

Absence of war’s mere pretence!

True peace, not pieces.
