Peace
I need peace with myself
With the neighbor and the neighborhood
For both complete each other
I share my peace with anyone
For I need internal peace
I give peace to get peace
I need peace with everyone
With the people around me
Men, women and children
Abhorrence begets unneeded fight
And hostility breaks peace
By creating unending animosity
I need peace with the environment
For it gives us the air we breathe
The trees we see around us
The blue sky we see above
The sea we see and the green grass
They all need peace for survival
Peace in our hearts, in our mouths
In our hands, in our eyes with anyone
Our dream of amity must abound daily
Peace today and tomorrow
Nurtures the thought of seeking
Peace with everyone and Mother Nature
