peace is possible

floating along

a lone leaf

twirling in slow motion

shimmering in the sunlight

free

to travel to faraway lands

limitless

unbound by time

religion

law

cultures

a voyeur

drifting

landing for a short time

until it is lifted and carried away

to another destination

keeping with it

a story to tell

a secret to share

a message of peace

that is possible

if we could be flexible

and detached from the outcome

trusting in the universal message 

that we are all one

our differences are planned

imperative

necessary

an integral part of the plan

of undefinable beauty

endless species 

no two are alike

that is the magic

and the key 

to understanding 

gods message

of acceptance

and love

even through pain

anger and defeat

we have a choice

to learn the lesson

and see our journey

forgiving ourselves

and others

knowing that the human

experience is an exercise

of patience, forgiveness, love

humility, compassion, acceptance

if we could all lose the ego

peace will prevail
