And finally, of Peacefulness we sing,
The gentle solace that its presence brings.
From Latin pax, a pact, a bond, a vow,
A harmony that lives and breathes right now.
It is the end of conflict, war, and fear,
A world where every voice is held so dear.
In Hebrew tongue, it is the word Shalom,
A sense of wholeness, of a spirit home.
It is not just the absence of a fight,
But a deep well-being, bathed in holy light.
Peacefulness is justice, truth, and grace,
Reflected in a kind and open face.
It is the blessing that the angels gave,
A gift of love, this side of the grave.
in
your
sacred
moments
of surrender
you relinquished
your natural instincts
to angel’s silver shroud
with joyous turquoise tears
and when again you soared
~ you carried dad with you ~
to the other side of the skies
as the sun bestowed a halo
upon the celebration of
~~~ONENESS~~~

Peace and Peacefulness and Peacableness in the World
Seems like just a myriad of Hope more than anything else;
A mere and sheer illusion.
Mr. Peace will only be born or borne or achieved
When the emphasis is on JUSTICE.
When world leaders begin to deflate their egos and think more of/on the masses.
Right now Peace is not on their menu or Agenda
As is Greed an Power and who can make the best war heads,
And how much money they can get in their bank accounts before their tenure ends.
What An Enormous Pity and Shame.
As long as so much selfishness and heartlessness remains in the heart of man,
True Peace in the world would never be achieved.
So sorry for saying this.
But it is our Bad, all our fault.-All Man's fault- Human Nature.
sunfilled peacefulness
ever teetertottering
bouts of cloudiness
When silence speaks
Nothing is heard.
Our breathe is a like a secret
Window, hotly working.
You squinting at a friend and
Trying not to giggle.
Or writing long exams in a room
With circling graphite,
Scantron sheet after scantron sheet.
Or in Mass,
The death knell of silliness,
Leave or lose your wind bag.
Or in your mind,
Be still your mind.
This is the fifteenth line.
Please be still your mind.

In the tranquil aura of a tropical clime
An idyllic scene, serene, pacific, sublime,
As paradisal souls basked in gold auspicious.
In peace, placid, prosperous, and prodigious.
There stands a sedate, an ethereal being.
It's a serene, glad coping; the knot is untying.
Gone are the times of delightful harmony.
She strolled rather softly, wanting to be.
In the tranquility of unruffled days.
She is peaceful and reserved in her ways.
She soothed the serenity of quiet.
Peace is serene in her finest climate.
Quietly, she led over life's hush path,
Lulled by the calm and restful aftermath,
Sedate and quiescent, she remained.
Silent and unshaken, quiet is sustained.
As a dove, she let peace bear hold.
Bringing a letup to the unrest untold.
In her pacific nature, she found solace.
Silence her weapon, her soother promise.
"peacefulness"
possession of happiness
enrichment of peacefulness
align both body and mind
hold touches of sunrise
celebrate a soul of freedom
exhale toxins to the wind
feel richness inhale
treasure each breath
undress the sun and moon
let light endlessly flow
necessary for independence
find life unimprisoned
enchanting simplicities
synonymous with harmony
show within renewed eyes
know rebirths of spring

One of the keys to happiness is mental quietness
a perceptive covering that operates on all fellness
And shall not incite one's heart pound emptiness
Start by being enthralled, then settle into stillness
Flee out of bed. Your feathers will hasten your brashness
We went on a quixotic to the darkest areas, tasteless
The springs rate boom as it grows the sturdy femaleness
The splendor of a full moon hung in the space darkness.
Out of bloom cherries are primed for neatness.
Ranches with lovely shades and surface wetness.
Orchards of lovely colors and textures, readiness.
Divine clean lips send heavenly voice pureness.
Delightful rapt echoes of a vivacious life sweetness

ALL YOURS (Jun 12) Poetry Contest
Two gems settle in your chest; love and sympathy.
Which prevents obstacles but not wisdom
Quietness contributes to the rise and serenity.
Times of jaunt and jubilation with no schism
Many crowns gaze away from the ground.
There are no swirls infused into the screen.
The tones soften as the deep-hued downed.
Feeling the slight shifts in his close keen.
Inept and vain ambitions utter to fade away.
Aim to unleash the resources of practice
Allow us to care for our stallion today
Inviting our perceptions to beat in consonance.
He is again intensely in love with her.
Coupling in the early era of kid's ethics to give
Then comes the discovery of one's genuine fear
The sense of what is precious to live
Tulips bloom, forming a hazy layer of clever
shine brightly with a light that is fast and safe
as we get closer to our goal, a wave of pleasure
Such a serene emotion and a pure spirit is not naif

Oh, I love the peacefulness
When there is no sound
Oh, I love the peacefulness
When there is no one around
I listen to my music
Swaying to the beat
Oh, in the peacefulness
I feel no defeat
sunfilled peacefulness
ever teeter tottering
bouts of cloudiness

Today, tomorrow
(Let my heart find peace at last)
Please no more sorrow!
