a man with rights
a gun at his side
no reason to fight
act as a cowboy in the past

A nice poem with the human folly it is truth and you gave a nice message we must try for such..thanks
You make some good points in your poem. The old adage - the pen is mightier than the sword is true especially in poetry. Although I'm a gun owner, learned how to shoot as a girl scout and was taught all the safety rules. Love target practice and have never shot anyone. Taught my sons how to shoot also. Guns don't kill people - people kill people. A gun can't shoot anyone unless a person pulls the trigger. Am an advocate for gun rights and stand behind the NRA completely. Have control over my weapons, and sons never took any of them unless we were with them. Because they were taught how to shoot and be safe they were never curious about them and never showed them off to anyone. It's all about education, ethics and morals. I respect your opinion and agree to disagree. Thank you for allowing me to read your poetry. RoseAnn
hi, this really a good poem, i don't think you write in bahasa and translate all in english, it won't hv good rhyme. i like this poem, the lines are beautiful with deep meaning. You have suceed capture the theme, overall poem indeed lovely. not many ppl realize pen can killed more ppl than gun... thanks for sharing
yeah! right! i really prefer these kinds of poems...this poem shows your care about human being...good luck adheez! :)
Hi Adheez. You asked me to read your poems and this one caught my eye. Firstly well done in writing in your own Language and then into English which is no easy feat, as our language is not the easiest to do! Obviously you slip up here and there but the meaning behind the poem is clear enough. A gun in the wrong hands can cause violence and destruction, as we see and hear about daily around the world.Once again well done and keep on writing.
A powerful statement and particularly the first verse that emphasizes how foolish the amendment is in this age.
In stead of wielding the pen, the children now use the gun. The future of these children will be a fun. The U.N.O will open its eyes when the head of a nation is shot down. When the heads of the poor fall on earth, it will be engaged in the search of the truth. This gun-culture will be spreading soon to other parts of the world. Your poem is a timely warning to the sensible world.
Yes, a pen as a gun, indeed only one word could touch millions at a time. All conflicts should be solved with the power of words. One day humanity will get rid of all of those ugly things, could bring nothing but pain, one day we shall become aware.
this is a beautiful piece talking bout some pressing issues, nicely penned
i believe definitely that you have hold a gun in your hand too.but with lot of differences.your gun is definitely your pen and the idea you are sharing with your pen.and this gun is lot more useful than those guns. merci~nb
Wonderful write. We must create awareness with whatever means we have about the abuse of gun laws and problems created by these laws.
The issues of guns in the US is complex and intransigent as so many vested interests like it just that way. Good write on a complex issue with the same frustration of so many victims and their families.
a powerful write. a man with gun is ofcourse a stupid one. the gun can not stop the natural disaster which is the grt attack on human kind.then what is the use of gun to use on the innocent. grnd write.
gun are for protection not for killers to act stupid wit. nice write
Very nice write. the guns, the kings of the humanity killing, they should be stopped to not take any other lives anymore. love this write pal keep up writing about humanity.
There is a saying in bible that one who uses sword to kill, will get end his life by a sword. so is the case of guns. More than the first few stanzas the last ones are better in rhythm and rhyme. Please read poems of Robert Frost more. It will help to come up.
The Tuscon shooting, the Columbus killings, The Colorado theater, Sandy Hook, inner city violence all of this is caused because of an outdated constitutional amendment that's the legal equivalent wisdom teeth a feature not needed. Im not American so I cannot understand the obsession with owning a firearms, all I see is the trail of violence that's led from it. If you measure freedom with owning a gun, your only free to pick your grave. Good write
Everyone is lying this poem is drivel. It flows like set concrete with imagry like in color.
