Peace must be the first act of the morning
As we rise to our doing lives
We must greet it as we stumble to retrieve that first smell
Of caffeine and taste our first bite of food.
Peace must be breathed in and out
Given to everyone we touch as we stir from our homes
Shared with a welcoming smile on that trip to work
Not just written and talked about.
Peace is gained through our own actions
Peace is that special gift we can give each other
Humanities strength of allowing our brother or sister
find a place, a special place within our hearts.
And peace is gained for our world when the majority
refuse to be selfish. When our love for the other is given
as a hand up and not a push away.
PEACE is achievable if we allow ourselves to project it daily.
We breath it and then live it.
Like a smile we control it
but allow the other to control their own peace
so it can be a Peaceful World,
not just for some but for all.
In that daily place we go to work
If we project the peace
we wish it will envelope us all
We are now physically holding each others hands
so there is no way violence can be.
Our virtual holding of hands here in this poem is like how we can achieve PEACE on a worldwide scale.
And the majority will do this
As more wish for peace the gathering will become stronger
So remember when you go for lunch
Sit in peace in the sun whenever that sunlight shines not too hot then find the shadow of a friendly tree
Speak kind words to those around you
and bring a peaceful smile to that place.
See the birds and look at the flowers.
Be the peace in the world that you wish
was there. Believe in the goodness of humanity
And bring a smile to your face.
Hug the person who is closest to you whenever you can.
And remember food is not our only fuel,
love also is what must be recharged on a daily bases.
Peace is a way of life we must live and breath it.
So than our last act at night
Must be a wish, a prayer of peace, the poem.
