Peace is a dream

An impossible possibility

A possible impossible

A nightmare

A fantasy

A desire

 

Peace is a thought

A rainbow of colors

A rainbow

Of religion

Origin, sex, culture, belief

Of skin, size, shape, control

 

Peace is death

A tree

A butterfly

A connection

 

Peace is mine

And yours too

Peace is over there

As well as here

 

Peace is being dead

Or alive

At the right place

Right time

 

Peace is a dream

A dream to become true

A true dream

Very real

 

I have made peace and so can you

Martin Luther King Jr.

John F. Kennedy

Jesus and Moses

Rosa Parks

and Georgia O'Keeffe

John Lennon

Martha Graham

Maya Angelou

and Betty Ford

Harriet Tubman

Gloria Steinem

Harvey Milk

and all the people at the shopping mall

 

I have made peace and so can you

Help me help you.

Help yourself

Your poor self

Find it

Deep inside

Peace

 

Then you can make it

Make it possible

Start from within

Listen do not hear

Speak do not talk

Reach do not fade

Touch do not feel

Love do not preach

Peace do not peace

Peace do not peace

Peace

 

 

Peace
