![]() "Peace Be With You" Staring at the mirrored soul Apologies drift aimlessly Futures foretold, believed not Behold what could and should be When peace is with you. How could you forget your way inside the comfort of your home Look inside yourself to see What cannot be concealed to others When peace walks with you. When endings must be endured When warmth is cold as frost on snow When virtues of wet sand crumbles from relentless surf poundings May peace embrace you. When the skin becomes thin and brittle When you have loved and lost When daylight will not illuminate the dark laments of shame May peace find your soul. You may have forgotten the sweet-vined taste of friends When the gold of truths are hopelessly tangled May Peace Be With You. (c) 2002 Picasso Lyrics |

Jeff darling boy this is utterly first class writing, definitely one of your best. The lines in this simply are awesome, the depth and the emotion you’ve managed to convey here is outstanding When endings must be endured When warmth is cold as frost on snow When virtues of wet sand crumbles from relentless surf poundings May peace embrace you. When the skin becomes thin and brittle When you have loved and lost When daylight will not illuminate the dark laments of shame May peace find your soul As for the message darling boy it is simply stunning. Peace be with you too. ![]() ![]() ![]() Love and warm stuff As always Mushy ![]() ![]() To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |
