Evening, Wisdom and Beauty

If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other. ~Mother Teresa




~Seymour Miller & Jill Jackson, "Let There Be Peace on Earth," 1955



Cloudy
elbows across
the face,
the tired Sun,
squinting
at the
hovering bird,
blocks his eyes;

Now waiting
to sink
his turbulent
mind
into the cool
ocean waters,
to start
with a clean slate
another day...

He has seen
too much,
killing,
fighting,
jeering,
destruction
on his
daily route
across
the world.....

Let there be peace on earth
And let it begin with me.
An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind. ~Mahatma Gandhi





Today I bent the truth to be kind, and I have no regret, for I am far surer of what is kind than I am of what is true. ~Robert Brault,



Don't wait for people to be friendly, show them how. ~Author Unknown



The kindest word in all the world is the unkind word, unsaid. ~Author Unknown

Life
rolls on,
rising,
ebbing,
waves
holding hands
through
the
infinite blue;

Some obstacles
surmounted
together
in a brilliant
cheerful spray;
the happy rocks,
bathed,
under a warm sun,
playful birds
dodging
a cool sprinkle...

Lifes
little skirmishes,
now sweeter,
and cooling down
to exultant
relaxing waves,
humoring
each other
as they roll on
to rest ,
momentarily
on the
inviting sands.
