Unstoppable Poem by Liilia Talts Morrison

Unstoppable



No guns, no bombs nor tanks of steel
can stop creation's flow
the cycle of birth, life and death
as sure as winds must blow

Though fighter planes fill skies above
yet do bright chestnuts bloom
and even when cathedrals fall
new temples challenge doom

The scars of war can't be erased
by wishing them away
a mother grieves for her small babe
who never learned to play

Yet even in destruction's wake
new growth will always strive
to challenge famine, drought and harm
and hope will still survive

No guns, no bombs nor tanks of steel
can stop creation's flow
the cycle of birth, life and death
as sure as winds must blow.
