P - Peace, a tranquil sea in the soul, a quiet dove’s flight, L - Love, a gentle fire that warms the heart, a beacon bright, U - Understanding, a bridge built between minds, a path of light, M - Mercy, the soft rain that cleanses the earth, a starry night. Peace blooms in the quiet of a mindful heart’s grace, Love’s enduring song fills the empty, lonely space, Understanding’s hand reaches across the human race, Mercy’s gentle touch leaves a lasting, kind embrace. In harmony they dance, the world’s most needed four, P-L-U-M, a symphony we must implore.
