WHAT IS PEACE, I WONDER!

What is peace, I wonder!
Who can tell me?

Does it come and go
Like a wave on the shore?
Is it, perhaps, an idea
Elusive and distant?

What is peace, I wonder!
Who can tell me?

Peace is a song
Sweet as music
It is pure and beautiful
Bright as the sun
It is a laugh, a caress
A child’s kiss
It’s a friend, a game
A warm hug
It’s the world hand in hand
Moving on towards future
It is love, love among people,
Which will never be lost.
