Peace

In time the wind will change, the sea will change, the storm will abate,
the pouring rain will slow to a gentle drip and then stop all together
the sun will break through the clouds and birds will lift their heads
in song and swords will be beaten into plow shares to cultivate
the spring and as the good book says there is a season
for all things, so hold my hand and let’s walk together
down this new path together called peace and see
where it leads for the same old ways of anger
and distrust have become dreadfully
boring don’t you think?
