I Found Peace

The night was long and restless, So I watched the sun come up, As I sat, watched, and listened, The trees whispered sweet nothing in my ears, While the birds played me an undiscovered melody, And in this moment of nirvana, I realized a key element of my life, In this corrupt world of miscommunication and misguidance, THERE IS STILL PEACE, Not through sex, drugs, or music, But through the eyes of a child, The warmth of a loved one, The look of happiness and excitement on a strangers face, And YES the silence in the early morning dew misting the grass, As I stared in at the beauty not yet defined by another, PEACE, And So as I sat watching the trees sway back and forth bringing life into this death bound world, I sat… Listened… And Felt something that I thought could only be felt in a dream, I felt Peace
