Renew the ties our angry barbs Have severed needlessly. Perhaps we fear rejection If we even make a try At mending broken fences And eating humble pie. Perhaps we think we've waited Too long to heal the breach And reconciliation is way beyond our reach But once we take that first big step We're pretty apt to see The olive branch we offer is accepted eagerly And the simple words l'm Sorry Will open up the doors To a more enduring friendship Than the one we shared before. ings Robin Smith

Predicament Why do we fight? Why do we kill something as precious as life? l see no reason to do battle, Especially when there is no solution. We should settle our differences verbally, In war the young and innocent die, Not the elite group who decides upon war. We pay the price for their foolish decision. We suffer consequences due to their suspicions Disturbance ripples on the water waves persist -Samra Zafar My Message Today I cried a painful tear for the world that's falling apart: The violence and the terrible ways, I wish people would have a heart. The people of the world today . . . It's just obvious, they don't care. The world's too busy thinking of itself. We are really not aware! The world is whirling very fast. Please hear the words I say: fthe only answer I can seel With a prayer, love, and dedication The way to keep our world alive Is to think more of we . . . than me! -Gina Gonzalez I f I L Ml W5 ll!
