Inner Peace
The…
Days go by
Years will follow
Sometimes I wonder
Why the human does
Not recognize
In…
Their quest to conquer
And divide
We lose the ability
To have a smooth ride
Along…
The trails left behind
From generations before
For those who follow
A new frontier to explore.
Is…
It possible for inner peace?
A way to wake up from
A long, long sleep.
Perhaps…
It will begin, when each
Individual looks within,
For their spark of light
Only they can ignite.
Inner…
Peace is ready for the taking
To rise to the top
Not to be forsaken.
A…
Ripple will be felt
Once the tides have turned.
Those who are close by,
Are the lucky ones.
The…
Power of peace can be felt
For miles around.
Once it has started, fast
Feet have hit the ground.
Running…
Against the tick of the clock,
As the energy of peace
Does not wish to stop.
Dodge…
And duck, to avoid the
Possible damage,
That anger, hate and
Even slander
Can…
Bring upon the wave
of love,
All within peace,
We are a part of.
Take…
A moment, sit back and relax
Measure the level your inner
Peace has become.
When you discover how easy it
Is, you’ll be willing to pass it on.
If…
Not now, then when is the time
To transform the world,
Yours and mine?
We…
Leave it for others to walk in
Our shoes,
Does it feel good knowing
This is what they will do?
Inner…
Peace is the only solution
For humankind to come
To a viable resolution.
The trails left behind
From generations before
For those who follow
A new frontier to explore. This is great. Very powerful statement here.
Larry, I often think about how things have changed from when I was growing up. The landscape is so different, ripe for new ways to explore how humanity can get their act together!! We have so much advancement and discoveries, yet the mentality of the group consciousness is stuck. I question what are we leaving for our children and their children? What have we learned from the trails left behind and are we adjusting to not make the same mistakes? Seems we have a looooong way to go!! On the brighter side, more people are getting tired of the same cycle, and trying to make a positive difference. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for success!! Cheers!
Awesome thoughts, Eileen.
Inner peace is of all of a piece with compassion. A language understood only by very few.
Winning fame ‘n’ fortune, never ending black fridays shopping sprees and being ‘in the rut’ is ‘inner peace’ for most. Sad and ironical.
Rajat,
Thank you! Inner peace takes lots of practice and years of unraveling to truly understand what it feels like and it’s meaning on the deeper level. To inter-relate oneself of the idea that we are perfect just as we are without all the “stuff” and we are capable of just be-ing to achieve peace….without the chasing and becoming something that always seems to be just out of reach.
Appreciate your reading my musings and sharing your thoughts! I hope the series is giving you a better sense of centeredness and peace. Cheers! Eileen
