Peace Calls You Home On Time

 

Make a wish for the world you want to see.  Then live it as if it is free.  Dreams always come true.

 

PEACE IS THE TREVI FOUNDATION OF LIFE

 

The way of peace,

Is the way of truth,

The way of truth,

Is the way of clarity,

And this arises when one is clear.

 

Many windows are stained,

Many seasons have passed,

Smudging to see the trees,

Blurring to watch the birds,

For the beauty of life is in the shadows,

As you can no longer see through the pane,

Of your true self.

 

For when you clear,

The rain shadow of blame will suddenly stop,

Dialogue will open as the flower,

Response will be the song of a shared solution,

For what WE DO to another WE DO to ourselves,

What WE SEE  in another is in ourselves,

For WE SEE AS WE ARE not as they are,

and this is true … as the night follows day,

You cannot bare false witness to another,

For that would be to lie to yourself.

 

We live in a world of great confusion,

How do I know the world is confused?

The love you WITHHOLD is the pain you carry!

What do I mean by love withheld?

Is this romantic or an open heart?

For TRUE LOVE is not romantic,

True love is semantic,

And the love withheld is when …

Words need to be spoken and one remains SILENT,

Eyes  community but choose to NOT MEET,

Truth is CONCEALED rather than heals,

Authenticity is HIDDEN under the bushel,

Vulnerability is forbidden for FEAR of defeat,

For what you hide in yourself you SUPPRESS in another,

And this is the cover that never gives protection,

For this is the PAIN you carry to the grave.

 

We are here to be HAPPY,

Our journey is one of SELF DISCOVERY,

For that path only opens with self HONESTY,

Many are at different levels of understanding,

For life is the myriad things,

It is above so below,

It is within and without,

It is the alpha and the omega,

The yin and the yang,

For every positive has its MIRROR negative,

In a world of duality,

CAUSALITY,

For cause and effect resurrect …

Responsibility.

 

Yet the greatest IMPACT is allowing LOVE to be seen,

For the TRUTH to be screamed,

As SUPPRESSION yields to DEPRESSION,

And this is to be buried alive,

Tightening the tourniquet of psychological limits to growth,

Yielding the real SILENT SPRING unable to flower,

Toxins contains and constraining life,

Yet the PULSE of life cannot be slowed,

The pace of CHANGE can not be rearranged,

For LIFE cannot be suppressed or contained,

As it springs to life in the harshest conditions,

For the very nature of life is to break FREE,

As life breaks the banks of the levy,

To fulfil the WISH at the Trevi Fountain,

For this is the foundation of youth,

Waters cleansing and refreshing the SOUL,

As I dangle my feet to reinvigorate,

I feel the blessing of the ELIXER of life’s waters,

Caressing,

Expressing,

Reminiscing,

As I know my DREAMS will come true,

As my penny will bring me back not to Rome,

But HOME.

 

My dream is for WORLD PEACE,

My desire is to KNOW MYSELF and be true,

To LET GO of all inner conflict,

To allow LIFE to come and go,

To go with the flow not the fuss,

To dancing with ANCIENT rhythms in a trance,

As I watch the water slip through my fingers,

For there is nothing I can hold with certainty,

All is a temporary ILLUSION,

For how can you control what is naturally free?

For it invented me,

And you,

In a room without views,

Seeing with ONE vision,

Allowing diversity to defrag into unity,

For this is the Oneness of the TRUE LIFE,

That is never alone,

As it is calling you,

Home,

On time.

Mohandas Gandhi

“Nobody can hurt me without my permission.”
