Best At Peace Poems

Who are you?

If you look in the mirror do you like what you see?
Better yet do you love the reflection staring back at you?

Are you that man that is always the life of the party?
The same one that as soon as he is alone
He begins...

Evergreen pines 
Evergreen firs,
Yellow moon size star rays shining through,
Nighttime in the forest.

Red cardinals mutter, mourning doves coo
On branches in sleep
Roosting in their wait for the morrow
To forage.

Rustling mice on decaying leaves,
A roaming cat strangely at peace with the night,
Lets the critters sleep.
So curious is...

The yellow lambent moon 
sent its rays across the shimmering sea.
A balmy breeze moved the waves
in a rolling fashion towards the beach.
Crabs hurried and dived into the foam.
Distant horns sounded as they passed
A mighty lighthouse, that sent its warning.

It was a peaceful night, as I...

Down by the cool brook

Switches swaying in thy breeze

My heart now serene...

To listen to the world with my silence,
And feel the breath of life move in an out.
To search this quiet with heart's abidance,
And touch the soul, to free the dark of doubt.
To see the peaceful motion of flowers,
As they dance in soft breezes without care.
Feel...

With dreams the west created factory's,
with dreams they invented car's,
with dreams they build space ships,
and travelled out past mar's,

with dreams the factory's build job's,
with dreams the jobs built careers,
with dreams the people built house's,
they didn't ask for you to help,

they built there live's themselve's,
you can...

And I step out into the unknown
The rain has just begun 
I gently stand up from the tree
And I begin to notice
That after all that has happened
And by love mutilated
I sit and think
How could I have lived
But, yet, for the first time
In this unjust life
From...

Be at Peace





Conflict of societies
Fight for boundaries
Extreme collective aggression,
and we are at war .....

Ecosystem deteriorates,
Infrastructure crushed,
Modernisation of warfare,
are we heading towards humanisation ?

Let one Tsunami rise
or an earthquake shudder,
and everything finally at peace.
To make us understand
that we, the inhabitants,
only are visitors 
And not born to...

Soft skies of blue and ivory
Circling the planet of light and ebony

Colored eyes enthralled by the cold of the night
Waving lightning mantled by fright

Winds embracing acquiescent bodies so bleak
Unshielded pillars of the strong, not weak

Grounds bracing the faithful with might
Bounds of serenity awaits so light

working good…
eating good…
doing good…
what is a holistic world?

Will there ever be total peace in the world

Or am I just a silly old goon

As long as loonies want more than their share

Even want a piece of the moon

Good people of earth will forever resist

When countries get too big for their britches

And want much...

That July morning you left with the dawn.
Finally done with a life full & long.
You brightened our lives with your wisdom & love,
& still shine upon us now from Heaven above.

Today, though our hearts are heavy with sorrow
The sun will still rise with a brand...

A shark and a dolphin were seen
with a very small space in-between.
They were both in their stride
as they swam side-by-side 
it was a highly unlikely scene!

A world at peace, will we ever see it?
I really don't get it, a bit naive I'll admit
Life's quite simple
We all get pimples
Why must killing be part of the script

Dying granted her

     sad days of torment and pain.

God delivered peace.
