Peace, and all that it offers

Peace,

and all that it offers

reflects hopefully in the rushing springs

that form the headwaters,

reflects brilliantly as the sunset

in the desert water hole,

reflects placidly in the cool

deep waters of an alpine lake,

reflects gently in the undulating ripples of

the pebble lined river,

reflects triumphantly in the ocean as

the rivers return to the ultimate source,

reflects poignantly in the eyes of

those who understand it,

reflects perfectly in the lives of

those who embody it.
