If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away---Henry David Thoreau

A Day is Coming: a poem and illustration by Leo Hartshorn
a day is coming
when wars will cease
nations will rejoice
hope will spring forth
a day is coming
when death will be no more
pain will be healed
tears will be dried
a day is coming
when love will reign supreme
joy will overflow
peace will fill the earth
a day is coming
when the old will feel young
the young will be wise
and the wise will be heard
a day is coming
when guns will become shovels
tanks become merry-go-rounds
and the soldier and peacemaker will ride together
a day is coming…
