In Peace rooms
Peace cabinets
Plan for Declarations of peace:
How to react to future
Out breaks of Peace,
And how to circumvent
the dangers of
all out Nuclear Peace.
In classrooms Teachers teach
The history of Peace
The Vietnam Peace
Boar Peace
Civil Peace
The Great Peace
The Second World Peace
Each day
We read Peace headlines
Peace in the Middle East
Peace in Africa
Peace on drugs
Peace on terror
Peace on Hate.
Some say religion causes Peace.
And life itself is a long
Peace between good and evil.
Yet acts of Peace
Unite us,
And define the good in us.
When People gather
In their thousands,
To Light candles,
Bring flowers,
Sing songs,
And choose kindnesses.
