Peace Begins Within
Searching for answers in this mindless world,
Confusion sets in when answers are untold,
We buy the newest, the latest, the greatest,
This one shiny thing will be our happiness..
Giving away pieces of ourselves without care,
Hoping beyond hope that peace we find to share,
But share with whom? The next love or friend?
Believing that peace on others we depend?
All the while, our searches last endlessly,
Skittering here and there, hunting mindlessly,
If we could only stop and listen to the wind,
We would find peace begins within.

Thanks so much! Today is certainly a good day for reflection in the important things. Once we all realize that our peace is inside us instead of in external things, peace will surely find its way.

I so agree! I admit that I get caught up in it myself, but then pull back to take stock as soon as I realize it!

Very nice – I like poetic writings, but the ones that call for some kind of response, or action are the best. Thanks for sharing!
