A Prescription for World Peace

Paradoxes seeking resolution

amplified by external noise pollution

conflicting views endlessly collide

how do we bridge this great divide?

Practicing the art of contemplation

life’s moment by moment mediation

balances polarizing extremes

bringing harmony when life pulls at the seams.

Emotional turmoil, wars waged in the mind

heed this invitation and leave struggle behind

Freedom is ours from these internal tyrants

Pause and relax into the timeless silence.

Imagine one by one, minds surrender

to the still point’s infinite splendor

refreshing peace NOW permeates

love wins over divisive debates.

To move beyond this endless fighting

and embody the wisdom of uniting

requires this silent journey we all must take

soul medicine mends our collective heartbreak.
