Fantasia
I dream
of
giving birth
to
a child
who will ask
'Mother,
what was war?'
- Eve Merriam
Having done a fair bit of writing lately as well as working on my Mother's Day jewelery has turned my thoughts, eyes and fingers to my collection of poetry books. While reading through a collection of poems on Motherhood, I found the above.
Profound for two reasons, the first being obvious.
War is stupid.
The second being the title...as Fantasia 1 & 2 by Disney are two movies I adore.
May our children or their children one day see a world truly at Peace.
Thank you for this post! I don't care how old I get, I will never, ever understand war!
