Under The Snow
Contemplative
Clean, white snow
piling up outside my window
Inspiring music turned up
Thinking.
Thinking........writing....thinking that.......
The road to peace is not a long one
but it is a deep one
With tentacles that reach inside the bone and sinew of each person
To the core
Silently strong
It is a place.
And I like to go there
It is still
And real
Snow-swept
Forgiving
True
Not a creed or background or a philosophy
It is a location
In me
And in you
Wherever you find your peace today, remember this -
Deep and abiding peace is always rooted in love
Waiting to seep out of our pores and into the lives of others
who need it
who need
us
Any love found under the snow -
especially the unconditional kind......
Always manifests as peace to the world.

Ah Mimi, the poem is beautiful - and you're so right... it is within each of us, only a breath away... if we'll only draw in that breath and allow it to seep out of our pores and into the lives of others
who need it
who need
us... if only we could all remember how easy it is.
Wow.
Everything anneslisa said and more.
impressive, but not surprising...
Annelisa - Kindred spirits we are.
Bud - Kindred spirits we are.
And more.
Beautiful poem! And I agree, achieving peace isn't that far away. If only more people can work together...hmmm...
Wow, I needed that! Thanks.
