PEACE 

by Jenny Buckingham

I sit and swirl my feet in the warm sand,

watching the playing dolphins.

I drift off into an unreal world of peace.

There is no fighting, racism, harsh criticism, drugs, or guns.

Only laughs, fun striking scenery, soothing noises, and friendly people.

No one cares what you look like, how much money you have, or where you rank in this hard world.

They love you for you;

Accepting everything you wish to share.

You love them and they love you.

There is so much unconditional love.

I drift back into this unfair reality called our world.

It is not peace – it is war.

It is not love – it is hate.

It may always be this way, if we don’t wake up and take a taste!
