Peace

 

In the twisting winds of time and change

A Mighty river of Peace may run through

You soul

 

Though we travel through dust and storms

There is a place deep within

That shores up the Soul

And carries the vessel through the

Rocky terrain

 

Drop down in

Look for place underneath

It is there

In all of us

No matter

 

It is always there below the life story

The challenges the struggle

 

If you look you will see that no matter your journey

In life

You can rest, breath, laugh and love

From this deep place within

You.

 

However if you do not look for it,

It will surely not arrive.

We must dig, traverse the steps,

Want it more than anything else in the World.

More than Anger, more than hurt, more than grief, more than

Betrayal, more than disappointment, more than Pride.

 

Do you wish Peace, than you shall have it.

I know.
