Gather your strength
for winds may blow
the mind is shaken
to and fro

there are no whys
as contemplation flies
of the deception
that came from below

the time is certain
for the purpose
mine
the liberty is yours

to grasp

follow the heart
of the spirit's swoon
to the break of day
and setting moon

Very beautiful. Inner peace is as necessary as world peace.

The title "Prayer of peace" appealed to me and spoke to me, especially after watching yesterday an old movie "The young lions" with Marlon Brando, M. Clift and D. Martin, where Brando as a German soldier listens to his heart and can't tolerate to obey blindly ...

Love,
Margherita
