Peace is All Around Us

Peace is all around us, in the silence, in the moonlight,
In the palm fronds swaying gently on the breeze,
In the shadows, in the sleepy sky, in the sunshine splashing sweetly,
Through the windows, through the days, and through the trees;
Peace is all around us, in the ocean, in the rolling waves,
In the shelter of a forest’s deep embrace,
In the wind songs, in the whispers, in the air that flutters gently,
Through the moments, through her hair, against my face;
Peace is all around us, in the rhythms, in the melodies,
In the space between the lines of lullabies,
In the bird songs, in her shallow sighs, in the tones that shine soft colors,
Through the laughter, through the echoes from her eyes;
Peace is all around us, in deep breathing, in the sound of prayer,
In the reverie of a daydream’s misty trance,
In meditation, in elevation, to the consciousness that lifts us,
Through the darkness, through the shelter, through the chance;
Peace is all around us, in the silence, in the moonlight,
In the palm fronds swaying gently on the breeze,
In the shadows, in the sleepy sky, in the sunshine splashing sweetly,
Through the windows, through the days, and through the trees.
