And raised a very valid issue

Revisiting 'Poets for Peace', once again! The Poets hold a pen and pour out their powerful feelings. They have an impact - a dynamic influence on the conscience of the readers. A poem absolutely relevant to the present times.
The power or the collective voice of all poets on the site may force the self-serving way-ward politicians to see reason.
The voices, and actions, of passive terrorists in South Africa were largely responsible for the movement that had demanded, and won, Nelson Mandela's freedom! Look at what happened after that! Excellent poem, Rajnish!
I appreciate your views and valuable feedback. Ideas that changed the world were not necessarily backed by armies.
Poets have major role to play in the society. No matter what we have to keep going without any distractions. Very well written thought provoking poem.
Yes sir, I agree with your friends stance but not all poets do that only a few revolutionary poets like me raise their voices against exploitation, corruption and social Injustice. This straight forward write can be interpreted in different ways. A value laden piece... liked it.
too many questions you have asked but poets have a task to move a few st..READ THERE FRIEND
Poet comes to make peace, poet comes to make righteous law, poet comes to make pleasure, poet comes to make universal unity and an equal platform for all; poet comes to inspire all to live delightfully and wisely; true poet is true poet where divine wisdom lives spontaneously
This is beautiful poem sir. A poet is all time guide and leader. They speak when people fail to make move. They are ever powerful though they seem meager. Thank-you sir.
Sir you are PH'S OUTSTANDING WORLD POET Congrats Do read my similar poetr GIVE PEACE A CHANCE AND ONE POSETED TODAY WHAT WILL PEOPLE SAY...LIKE THESE TWO U may thanx
Let the forces trained to fight Fight with their full might (physical, moral and spiritual) And defeat all black forces Executing their mindless designs Wherever they are.... beautiful
You raise a serious problem in today's world. Poets write about peace and condemn war again and again, but only the politicians can change things. Very frustrating for writers.
Poets cannot replace armed forces but they can work for creating an atmosphere leading to better understanding among rival groups to bring about lasting peace in the world.
We cannot underestimate the power of words. They are sharper than many swords put together. A sincere voice will be heard. It may take time. But i truly believe it will be heard. A collective voice for world peace will surely stir the collective conscience of the poets in particular, and people in general. Dear Rajnish ji, this is, indeed, a powerful poem........100
Dear Geeta ji, please accept my sincere thanks for your kind support and appreciation. I fully agree with what you have stated in your review of the poem.
For instance, we cannot forget the writings of the likes of G.B. Shaw including his play 'Arms And The Man' talking of the futility of war, Henry Thoreau's 'Walden' advocating civil disobedience or Voltair's works aimed at freedom of religion, freedom of speech and separation of Church and State. We stand nowhere in front of these stalwarts but, at least, we can have an honest attempt to raise our voice with like-minded people.
Words are powerful than swords, poets and writers should keep writing Good one
You have said it, Rini. Words are mightier than the sword. So, we take it as our duty to wield our pens battling the ills of the world. Thanks for supporting the cause.
This poem raises an interesting question. Are poets capable of advocating for peace? Any voice eventually, will be followed by others. We must not look for resolution but revolution through the voices of peace. Eventually, peace comes after war. +++10 Robert
You have so nicely analysed the whole situation in its right perspective. Poets can not bring about a revolution but can raise their voice for change. Thanks a lot for your balanced appraisal, Sir.
Poets reflect complete and beautiful mood. Every poetic word seems to be peaceful. Revisiting this peaceful poem values more. This is brilliantly penned..10
Honoured to have your wonderful comments yet again. Thanks a lot, Sir.
A million questions are answered through the title itself.. a great insightful poem.. 10
