April 2025 Editor's Choice: "The Soul of Peace"

Love is the soul of peace. Peace leads to prosperity.

Hate causes disorder.

Disorder brings decay.

The world was made for love,

mutual care and harmony

to make it the earthly paradise

but man, alas, puffed with pride,

turns it to infernal chaos.

Come, throwing away fairly

our contempt in the dustbin.

Let's let the global tranquility

defeating the terror, the shit,

The horrible giant that howls

breathing fiery hatred, the hag

that hatches enmity among

brethren of the same seed.

Forbear, o man, the sentiments

which turn heaven into hell.

Spread instead the spirit

which makes hell a heaven.

Let the world enjoy peacefully.
