PEACE (Acrostic)
Place within self that is calm yet
Echoes a source of freedom
And that draws harmony among others
Cool headed and without stress and the best
Example lies within self and feeling deeply at rest

What strikes me is how you’ve woven together two seemingly opposite truths: peace as place within self AND as something that echoes outward, draws harmony among others. Because the real work, isn’t it, is that we can’t force peace outward if it hasn’t first settled inward? And yet we also can’t only look inward—at some point peace has to become example, has to ripple. So my question becomes: how do you hold both? How do you stay at rest while also being responsible for what your peace teaches others? Is that the full work of it?
I appreciate that a lot as well as your comment here. Very well stated and from a deep outlook. I believe the full work of it along with holding both is to find our way there first and then realize duality of inner and outer, maintaining both areas will take work but it’s necessary in order to truly have peace in full. A life long journey once discovered.
The truth is, none of us exists in isolation. But only we can do our inner work. To keep both of these in mind as we proceed through life give us a uniquely necessary perspective I think. 🌺♥️
100% agree with you there, great insight!! 🙂
Glad you think so. 🌺

Yes indeed!

I find peace elusive at times.
The outward does not always match inner turmoil.
It does take much work for equilibrium.
Loved your poem.
