Excellent poem Raj. I particularly enjoyed the symbolism of the olive leaf and the dove. If only we could follow the love of a dove's coo as nature doesn't fight unnecessarily. We must stand together and pray for peace..... than you Raj. 10 Karin

What Bob has said in his comment is absolutely right. This Nobel Prize for Obama is for things to come, not for the things he has done or achieved for the world’s peace. This is perhaps a new dimension of the Nobel Prize towards world's hopes and desires. Here rises a question, will there be a Nobel Prize for an expected great piece of write not actually written but outlined in the mind of a writer?

Raj, Obama has made a lot of promises and I to wish him well. A prize for things to come. Lets hope it can be done! ! A lot of truth in the words you have written may still stop his resolve. Our differences somehow do not allow us to share. A fine poem, warm regards Bob

Beautifully expressed. There are indeed many unsung peace makers in our world today. God knows their names. Praise for your graceful, eloquent pen. Always your friend, Sandra

I liked your expression 'hawks' there...another of the 'Eagle' variety...i believe Obama is only a humble receiver of this noble prize...a prize for winning peace is yet to be won...those who deserve will soon emerge up as you wish...good poem Raj...you tell a lot of truth inside there...thanks...10

Like water peace also has become scarce! A prize for promotion of peace is indeed a must!
