Peace

Peace is 

The warm glow of the sun on your face

The slow pace of an afternoon stroll

The laughter of children sharing each other's joy

The holding hands of a girl and a boy

The love in their eyes in their gazes so deep

A sleep

a restful comforting sleep

A pillow that softly cradles your head

A meadow filled with countless beds

of flowers and bees

and tall luscious trees

The sound of the raindrops hitting the window pane

The rainbow that stretches so wide across the sky

A mountain so high, a sweet baby's cry

A voice thick like molasses or sweet like honey

A touch warm and gentle, a taste rich and yummy

The babbling brook and whispering wind with so much to say

The beginning of a beautiful morning, the end of a long day

A faith in a Higher Power, a regal eagle in flight

A hope for a better day, a kiss and being held tight

Peace is all of these things

and the joy that they bring
