A good effort to remind us of what we need to do to establish peace. I like this line, “But dare you say, for LOVE you won't be sold? ”
If each one of us were like 'Bruce's spider' PEACE may pity us and allow us a closer view of it.
If I say this poem is 'MARVELLOUS' it would perhaps be a euphamism.
The iron-clad framework of this 'fixed form' poem has not interfered with the fertility of your imagination nor with your all-round poetic talent in any way. Well done!
An inspiring poem handing out to us the message that sincere and ceaseless toil for attaining our aims, whatever they be, will one day bear fruit.
Very well penned. Only Love, coupled with patient toil, like that of 'King Bruce's spider' can make make our chase of Peace faster and one day it may well be caught! Let us hope so!

The words..classical..that makes each lines very captivating... And the concept..of very poet, indeed... Great poem..Well penned...
What a beautiful poem this is, Dr. Tulsi. Your writing is a breath of fresh air in a world run amok with free style or ethereal poetry. It is more classical in form, and wonderfully so. This moving poem is an excellent example of that, and more importantly, it is also an eloquent statement on the meaning of peace. Carl.
This was good, however I felt the erge to get 'lost'as I was reading the poem down, maybe in my oppion too repetisious...... But none the less very well constructed... Bonnie

Wonderful poem, precisely written to capture the elusive peace on this world.
full of sentiments...your great desire hope for the world to obtain PEACE.... no money can buy PEACE...only LOVE.... very meaningful...heartfelt appeal....If we can only embrace and chained that evasive peace...then we have done it already....just for this world to have PEACE....for everybody, especially for the children to be happy and live in this world without fear and regrets... thanks for this ma'am....i love the thoughts....the irony in it.....this is absolutely a great piece....10+++++ and my vote....
