The Inner Peace
When walking in the night,
I saw a snake lying in the street
No awareness seemed she has had,
That could crush her to die
I found the busy vehicles,
All had broad bright eyes
That assured of spotting the snake
And avoid crushing her to death
I reckoned was sighted by the snake,
Seemed she feared not of our met
I hoped I wouldn't be too scared,
Have had steady steps
Note: The Philosophy embedded
Inner Peace has to be rooted in a sense of security, which comes from either the intentional avoiding like the drivers do, or unwilling to hurt, like the snake does.
