Rhymed Reflections<\/i><\/p>\n
Of all the many political documents in which Humankind may excel
\nthere is one in which universal human intent is \u00a0expressed well:<\/p>\n
Declaration is its name
\nto which the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights has brought fame<\/p>\n
In the History of The Culture of Peace
\nthe drafting of declarations does not seem to cease<\/p>\n
This is cogent evidence that Humankind wants the Presence of Peace to become
\na global reality<\/p>\n
With UN support, the AEDIDH initiative has eloquently given \u00a0The Right to Peace
\na global dignity<\/p>\n
May the official approval of the Draft \u00a0UN Declaration on the Right to Peace
\nin \u00a0the Geneva \u00a0meeting take place<\/p>\n
so that the protection, promotion, and sustainability of that human right
\nwill be shown on every \u00a0human face<\/p>\n
The Declaration on the Right to Peace will be more than hortatory:
\nIts global presence and application will be wisely celebratory<\/p>\n
of governments` intent to see their peoples share the Earth in peace
\nand co-build Global Citizenship Cultures, planetarily never to cease!<\/p>\n
