"Let Peace Replace the Chaos"

jerrytsuseer (67)in #poetry • 8 years ago

I wish that I could learn to let things slide away,
Like a raindrop off a leaf.
If anger and resentment would just go away, and
Not cause me so much grief.

How much more happy and tranquil would each day be,
If I could just let a breath in and out,
Then release and set me free.
Inner Voices of Conflict and Tumult,
Compete with every thought;
The spirit inside me; with chaos is so fraught.

Time is slipping away from me,
Younger I’m not getting; ‘tis not a paradox,
For the sun is nearly setting.
Have no fear my friends;
All is right with this scene, for this is the
Way it is in life.

We must first endure the pain…
Learn to deal with all the
Strife.
When we can do all that Methinks,
Our chaos will be
Replaced by peace, as it
Fills us all
With its light.
