PEACEFUL LANGUAGE USE - a poem-plea

When LANGUAGE for PEACE is used
LANGUAGE and PEACE can be fused
When LANGUAGE for PEACE is used
LANGUAGE with a SOUL is infused
When LANGUAGE for PEACE is used
Meditation can be mused
When LANGUAGE for PEACE is used
Mediation can be diffused
When LANGUAGE for PEACE is used
Linguistic dignity is never abused
When LANGUAGE for PEACE is used
Linguistic violence is always refused
Oh, HUMANKIND learn PEACEFUL LANGUAGE to employ
and help linguistic harmony be strongly alive
Our language uses lets fill with humanizing joy
and make COMMUNICATIVE PEACE everywhere thrive
