Peace

Peace

A Poem by Ahmad Cox

Peace is never forceful.
It's never out to prove itself.
Peace simply is.
It flows and glides like a summer breeze that touches every man and woman just the same.
Peace shows us how to love and to accept.
It never comes with a price.
Peace springs from kindness and compassion and empathy for another man's soul.
Peace never hurts.
Peace never harms.
You should never take the name of peace in vain to propagate hate. 
Peace should not come at the price of someone else's happiness
It should spring and flow like an inner well that never seems to cease. 
When you find peace you will know when it comes.
You will know that it's what you have always been waiting for.
When you find that peace inside yourself and you can accept what is shall be, you will come to a place where you can share some of your peace with me. 
And we can do the same with other's as well.
Until the peace in our hearts infects the people around us.
And it will form a never ending spring of peace that will spread around. 
Infecting more hearts as it spreads along.
Until finally one day peace will be all we will know. 
And war and hate and uncertainty and pain will be a long lost dream.
A relic of days gone by.

Aww thanks. I am glad you feel that way.
you can share some of your peace with me.
And we can do the same with other's as well.
Until the peace in our hearts infects the people around us.
And it will form a never ending spring of peace that will spread around.
Infecting more hearts as it spreads along.
Until finally one day peace will be all we will know.
And war and hate and uncertainty and pain will be a long lost dream.
A relic of days gone by.
