- Paradise Peace -

There is a place
where you may rest in peace
A train leaves the station
Another train derails


A tear falls slowly
down from heaven a place
A broken tear of silver
it is to shine on the ground


There is a place
where you may rest in peace
Desert without watering hole
you can not manage it more


A frozen rose will never pass away
You know that morning will come
Your eyes ask me silent
Do you love me


There is a place
where you may rest in peace
No one knows the end of life
Or if there is a reason to sing

Good morning Anne Lise, This is one of your best poems in my estimation. It is very tight and concise with dark elements. Great images. It truly has merit. Keep up the good work. Have a pleasant day. Take care. Earl

A pensive mood that does not try to evade reality. We all know where we're heading for; perhaps we have to be more aware of pitfalls along the way. Beautiful poem, Anne Lise. /x/ paul

No one knows where the life will have its end, rightly said. Without fulfilling the desires, peaceful resting is impossible. But, that's not also end in itself. Nice and very nicely presented. Loved always, my lovely friend,bl

Taoist and uniquely mystical Anne, I love poetry that's beautifully perplexing. I guess I'm saying you are a complicated Poetess. This dreamy poem tells me to live is to know Anne. " Your eyes ask me silent..." J.A.B.
