Peace

My grandparents are visiting from Texas this week and we all went downtown to take a lovely walk around the Capitol. My grandma's favorite part was the rose gardens, where we stumbled across some inspiring poems written by some brilliant youngsters.

Peace is initially established
through the love of friends
but is cemented in society
through the love of enemies



NO FIGHTING
NO TEARS
NO ANGER
NO PAIN
NO FEAR
NO GUNS
NO HATE
NO WAR
JUST SMILE
JUST JOY
JUST HUGS
JUST LOVE
JUST HOPE
JUST HAPPINESS
JUST NIRVANA
JUST PEACE

Very impressive insight from a couple of teenagers!

  1. You got to post at least one of your blogs! I really enjoyed the poems. It's amazing how aware some young people really are. Having a sense of the world and more importantly, a sense of self, is not so common in the youth, or sadly many adults.
