the Spiral peace challenge

Utopia

Barry Cashin

(over 22)



Where blood now flows through veins instead of streets

Where silence falls to calm the sound of rifles

And all around the scent of new horizons

Take me there.


Where angels make their marks among the many

Where bitterness is tempered with a smile

And all around is history in the making

Take me there.


Where beauty is a thing for all to cherish

Where hatred fumes, locked within it’s cell

And nations walk together with shared vision

Take us there.

The Spiral Poetry for Peace Competition 2007 is now closed. Over 350 entries were received, and the winning poem will be used as the theme page for a new interactive online peace campaign designed by Bluhalo, one of UK's leading digital design and build agencies. The winning poem will be annouced on the 21st of September. In the meantime, check out these poems which we thought were worth mentioning. We will be uploading poems daily to this section, so come back often to read the poems and celebrate Peace through Poetry.
