I believe that in this small
independent world
there can still be peace.
That the raging fire
with its hot breath
and grasping fingers
can take the life
of that delicate flower
and that the young
green shoot
can rise from the ashes
like the Phoenix
that can be reborn.
The world can be reborn
in a world of peace.
-- Liana Dillon, age 10
