                               Sweet Peace

It has been said, “it is our nature to war.”

I wonder if this is true or it is an idea we can undo.

Nature is the mystery we are all a part of.

Nature can be unpredictable and at times out of control.

Yet nature can be shifted and rearranged.

If to war is our nature, why can’t we shift and rearrange and

             bring about change?

Perhaps plant new seeds in our garden called the brain.

Like planting seeds of love to replace seeds of hate.

Like planting seeds of compassion and empathy to replace

           seeds of indifference and apathy.

Like planting seeds of faith to replace seeds of fear.

All growing and knowing  the seeds of peace and justice

            are slowly sowing.

Suddenly the flower of change appears causing the thought

            of war disappears.

Our nature is changed, our thoughts and ideas have been

           rearranged, peace begins to sprout.

Sweet Peace my soul feels at ease.

Sweet Peace my belly is full and my feet are warm.

Sweet Peace I can leave my heart and door open.

Its up to you and I to see there is no other there is only we and

            WE long to live in Peace.

Sweet Peace how I long for you.

Sweet Peace

Sweet Peace

Sweet Peace

When our representatives are making important decisions that impact all of our lives I believe it is important to ask one basic question before making those decisions, is this good for the children? Just imagine what our world would be like if that question was asked prior to making decisions about going to war, the environment, education or healthcare. .
