Good poem! And I would approve entirely of its message- except that the world's Hitlers, Stalins, Maos, Saddams, and assorted religious fanatic terrorist idiots give me pause.

Well, let me congratulate you for this great poem and also for eavesdropping into people's conversation. Thank God, the soldier did not notice that your stubborn ears were siphoning their conversation, I think he would have offered you a nice ice cream. ha! Well, I want you to understand that, God did not create us for our fellow human imperfect' beings to rule or exercise any form of control over us. We departed from his ways and seceded from his kingdom and so decided to organize our own way of ruling over our fellow human beings. Since we are not wise as He is, we cannot get rid of entire evil from this world. Our only source of hope is Him and he is the hope that we live upon. True peace does not exist, and will never exist along as we are ruled by imperfect beings like ourselves.Therefore, he who wants peace, should turn to the creator and leave according to his will, else any attempt to search for peace here on earth is as futile as searching for Shakespeare's poems in a mathematics textbook. Great poem though...well done!
