We live to struggle against the prophesying pillar force that determines the meaning of our lives, the purpose of life or the existence of our lives. These pillars represent questions of who we are, what our purpose is here on earth and if life exist outside the prison walls of our planet. Our ideology of life is multilateral and multicultural. And this splits the unity of our minds; A man knows he has only one life to live so he says to him “I must live my wish”. He antagonizes his fellow being for sinister gain, he goes far to bankrupt his country, amassing wealth his life can’t see finish and war erupts in thunderous sounds like a volcano. We set fuel that lit up chaos, we discovered the advancement that took us by arm’s length yet we have refused to plummet into the thought that we had done so long ago. The current craze for wild wealth in the world has overtime boggled even our minds; something has tweaked in our minds that amassing stolen wealth is a normal thing. The alarming crux about this is the fact that it is the youth of today that flaunts in that direction. The youth is an embodiment of the future and there can be no future without the youth. If the youth who is ripe in his time to dazzle and glisten in a spark of hope, expectation, hard work, determination and insight of a brighter future than his generations is annulling this and blasting his ear drums with electronically amplified rock ‘n’ roll, following the wild vulgarity in dress morality and pronouncing it fashion, watching violent videos and swaying with the backward modernized mirror of the world, what will be our future? The youth must know his role in the modern world because the youth represents the peace of the future and the war that may exist in it. The axiomatic purpose of the world’s youth must be related to peace, how to attain it and why it must be attained. We are feel honoured to publish the winning entries of the youth because we are aware that we are publishing the peace of the future. For there have shown maturity in their poems and have exhibited a great sense of mission, purpose, and want in achieving the peaceful world every peace advocate dreamed of. This collection compiles poems deep in the immersion of peace, harmony, true love, justice and self-courage from 1,000 poets aged 16 and above all around the world. The first part of the anthology is majored in peace poems which are followed by peace harmonizing themes from part two. Selected poems where judged by our juries. Poets have written with a great distinction against anti-peace. This not only helped the purpose of this anthology but ignited it as well. This anthology is a perfect dictionary of peace poetry any student anywhere in the world can study, read and confide in. because some of the poems denotes xxi the truths of life. Part of our intention is to basically motivate readers in that direction. For the poems will do far more than inspire the world in that direction, as it will be a source of motivation.
