MAKE LOVE, NOT WAR (by Godwin Kingsley)

The stems and stalks are stepping out

Dancing leaf to leaf; they’re swirling

Round and dipping low, unfurling

Their petals as they go about

Their dance routine; there is no doubt

They’re having a good time for sure;

They have been partying without

A break, they’re making love not war.
