Men Of War

They stifle the grass and they stifle the flowers
The weeds that grow rank in the warm Spring showers
Reminds me of the war men who for war create their foe
They don't give the flower of peace a chance to grow
With them one must say how much worse off we are
The World would be better without men of war
They create their barriers of us against they
And send the young men to fight for them to Lands far away,
They do remind me of the noxious weed
That in a green garden spread it's oppressive seed,
Not at peace with themselves so peace they do not need
Their warring words only to war us does lead
They try to convince us God is on our side
And because of them millions of people have died.
