Where Is Tranquility

Searching for peace on earth. Searching here there and everywhere with no luck. Not being able to find peace anywhere. Not being able to find the tranquility that we are all seeking to be near. It always seems to be at arms length. You hear and see signs of fear everywhere. From Canada to the Eastern Shore to Florida and Georgia too.California and Pennsylvania we all feel the seem need for tranquility in our life. From Korea To Japan and Brittian too noone is saved from the fears that has been placed upon us. From here to there we all have the need and desire to be free from this pain. The desire to feel the warmth and kindness everywhere. We turn on our tv just to hear of the killings in the night.the fires which have taken a life or two. Fighting in the streets gunshots heard in the still of the night.still ring in our heads for years to come. Children cring of hungar and starvation. No matter how hard we try the fear is here and will always be in generations to come. Bombing of our homes and bridges alike leaving us all stranded in the night. Where is Tranquility where has it gone. Has it ever been on earth as long as i can remember there has been violence everywhere. From the cold wars to fighting in korea to killing on our streets. So is there no such thing as tranquility on earth. Is the only place to find this tranquility that we all desire is it in heaven. ONLY GOD KNOWS!
