Seasons of Peace
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Quiet, calm peace
Among a desolate frozen plane
Beautiful and unique
Strangely kept whilst chaotic

Sounds of life beckoning
Yearning to take part in play
A place where safety is abundant
Welcoming spring to come and stay

In this paradise soldiers die
But not from war no; playful old age
The only sounds of guns
Are those saluting twenty-one times

Among a summer of flowers
Spread throughout the hills
Lie children in the meadows
Laughing and holding hands

Parents teaching kids about nature
Electronics second best notion
Always the world around comes first
Sharing ideas, words, and helping hands

Gathering wood for a peaceful bonfire
Where roasted marshmallows fill the cool air
Pumpkin pie made from scratch
Along the lips of a young boy

The wishes and dreams of entire civilizations
Rest upon this one said place
Where peace and harmony can meet
Allowing no segregation, no hate, no disgust

The seasons being the only bitter-sweet memory
The only cold shoulder is given by Jack Frost
Spring and Summer the only chance to be burned
And Fall; you should keep from doing amongst the leaves
