Peace part two
Not on the shelf;
Not in the store;
Not in any place;
Were there is want for more.
Not in those homes where words are thrown without care.
Not in the countries where people are treated unfair.
Not only for me, myself and I,
But for everyone who longs for and tries.
Peace is not something we can manufacture or create.
We don't micromanage or even make.
Peace is the flow
Peace is the gift that settles in slow.
Peace comes from within and without,
Sometimes with nary a shout.
Peace comes, enters in, and makes an arrival.
Peace comes, enters in, and is what we need for survival.
Peace to you, me, family and friends.
Peace to the whole world that never ends.
May this peace that surprises and draws us near
Find you this day in ways that you believe God cares.
Let peace be in our hearts, our homes, and our world.
Let it come. Let peace furrow.
May it be so for you and for all.
Blessings ~~
