Poem Commentary

Could we not find a way to communicate? Is war inevitable in our time, can forgiveness not be redeemed or is this our appointed round to endure?

The Battle of Friendship

  THE BATTLE OF FRIENDSHIP
 
I pray we don't meet in a battle
   of winter,
Instead I pray it is the life of
   spring better the heat of summer.
But if it is the battle of winter
    my camp I will not share
    warmth and food you'll find not
    there.

And if you call me friend
    I'll be forever foe
For if we meet in a battle of
    winter
Your body a guest will the earth
    hold.
 
 
It is better I say we meet
in the battle of summer
and that the heat of love will
hold til winter not be seen.
