Peace, Like the Still Pond

The glass like effect i see on ponds
Is earths peace, nature need not respond
How awesome it would be for this image to stay
For warring countries, to bow and pray
 
Neighbour's get on in harmony
Be at peace as it should be
Families love and get along
As we do more rights and fewer wrongs
 
Lives to spin and revolve, as our modern world turns
To stand up proud, as we live and learn
Honour peace as we all respond
Peace, like the still Pond


Inspired by Raul's " Nature's Reflections "

Amen to the thoughts you convey so well here, James. If nature can reflect peace, then man should be able to reflect it in his actions, too. Excellent writing once more! Love, Carolyn
