I look out across the sea,
The gentle flow of the ocean waves
In harmony with the world,
The world of peace and beauty.
The storm clouds appear,
The winds rise ,
The waves get higher
And crash to the shore,
Natures anger rises.
Calm is soon restored
And I once more look out,
Look out at the peace and beauty
That should be inherent,
Inherent in our world.
The storms within people
Seem unending,
They are unwilling to be calm,
All need what THEY want
Without caring for others.
I look out across the sea,
And dream of peace.

A fine write Gold. I don't think we do choose peace 'naturally', in our nature as human beings, without reference to God. Though we are capable of peace, being made in God's image.
Thanks Orchi. Peace is within our nature it is just that those in power do not want it.
May you have a peaceful year in 2019.
Thank you Joan and may Peace be always with you.
You know we CAN give peace a chance, it's the other buggers who spoil it.
