Peace Of Mind Among The Times
Peace of Mind Among The Times
There’s a concept forming upon the horizon
A sunset warning me to focus my eyes upon
A notion of antiquity to seemingly delight upon
While the elements of iniquity I can find only respite from
Magnitudes of promise designed to integrate with time
Attitudes of pretense that the delusional consider

PEACE OF MIND
left hurt and wounded by my own actions,
yeah you started it but i didnt have to go there,
i shouldve just minded my business,
ignored the situation,
but i didnt,
i couldnt bite my tongue,
i couldn’t refute the anger you sent me in shockwaves,
words that i shouldve said but i didnt,
words that i shouldnt of said

Peace of Mind
In the mere blink of a nightmare, I found myself rechained
and trapped where my peace of mind had once before
collapsed.
The die has been cast, an old challenge from the past, one
I thought long ago smashed, has incited another battle and
painfully thrashed my peace of mind like collateral damage
to aloofly leave behind.
It’s

To escape the tumult
And noise of the world, I unlock
And enter a secret door to
The serene haven of my mind.

PEACE OF MIND
Peace of mind is the unique quality
of any individual person
depending only on own emotion
identifying personality.
Life is a struggle, life is a challenge.
Path of life is not smooth, but uneven.

A Piece of My Mind on Peace of Mind
They asked for a piece of my mind—
so I offered silence, wrapped in gold.
No rage, no clamor, no thunderclap,
just breath unbroken when the world turned cold.
Peace of mind isn't a destination,
but a pact with storms I’ve learned to outlast.
Not the absence of chaos—but grace,
in the moments I choose not to cast judgment, holding fast.
It's the

Peace of Mind
During my time on our blue-green sphere,
I sometimes feel turmoil, living here.
I've found ideas I can release
to ease my mind and give it peace.
I do not need to have lots of things.
Pleasure is found in what nature brings.
I don't need to prove myself to my brothers.
If I'm okay with me, I can forget the others.
If

Peace of mind
I still my thoughts
until they're like the surface of a lake
gentle ripples soothing to the soul
I then invite a setting sun
to adorn this calmness
so it may linger on through the night

PEACE OF MIND
PEACE OF MIND
Poem written for “Peace of Mind” Poetry Contest, Kai Michael Neumann, sponsor, July 26, 2025. Here’s my piece of mind on what constitutes peace of mind:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Serenity holds the soul in its arms,
a delicate hug of quiet grace.
Contentment
Unmasked and genuine in mirror’s gaze
no need for pretense.
Confidence
Accepting the stillness
heart filled with silent strength.
Tranquility
Bridging the gaps,
fostering

Peace of mind
I need not build a mansion
to find my peace of mind.
I need no fleet of luxury cars
for calm to dwell inside.
All I need is a whisper —
a gentle breeze
blown beneath a clear, untroubled sky,
under a tree that leans above a quiet, streaming brook
casting a cool, soft shade.
The bright sunlight
will wrap me
in a tranquil blanket,
within a

Singing To Get A Peace of Mind A Praise To JESUS
I'm singing to get a peace of mind
In due time, overtime, sometimes near bedtime
When all obstacles are trying to distract me
So that I cannot see the full blessings
I sing Gospels songs to relax me
Songs to Jesus above
Praises with many of Gospel songs
The atmosphere can get toxic at times
I know that I shall keep a peace

Peace of Mind
I was there before the burying
I was there before I lost my way
Peace laid there like “dude,
You traded me for questions
And not many people find me again
So can I give you a suggestion?”
Ripped my heart open and
And Took out a twenty pound dumbbell like
If you seek then you shall find
If you absolutely don’t look behind
Here
