Peace for the Soul

A common space for harmonic peacemakers


i cannot be the answer
to your loneliness
i cannot be the healing
of your sorrow
here in the hush of poetry
i am but a distant friend

the lover that you long for
is over the far horizon
stop running in that direction
with burden of your impoverished body

sit this time instead
in twilight’s garden
with folded hands and Buddha smile
let the horizon
bring the beloved to you

in life there is a power that transforms
even weights of time and space
the crookedness of thorns
yields to the white dove’s melody
the seraphim of roses
