Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

Peacemakers

They walk among us
the peacemakers
their thoughts of crystal
and hearts so pure

They walk among us
with their eyes of love
kindness overflowing
they reach out to our souls

They walk among us
treading lightly
like gentle breezes
they infiltrate our hearts

They walk among us
leave behind a trace
a whisper that’s surreal
tangible as butterflies in flight
