Peace -What We Al Long For

Hello Shalom Yasu Ola Ni hao Bonjour to all of you out there We are unstable compounds seeking peace Urban life makes it difficult to find it But in the heart of Manhattan There are ways to escape There are some fine parks in the ciy where one can revel in nature Tai Chi lessons, synagogues, churches Buddhist temples are all there for us inthe metropolis We all long for peace Hold on to your hopes and dreams They are the keys to the city Though few remember that nowadays

We seem to run, collectively, from peace; we also seem to forget hope; you have reminded us in a beautiful way, with this poem.
