Our World at Peace

For only then will it be so

I close my eyes and I am at Peace and it is so.

I close my eyes, and see into the hearts and homes of families and they are at Peace.

I close my eyes, and every child on the planet has been fed.

I close my eyes, and there is no lack in any life or in any land.

I close my eyes, and Mother Earth and all Her creatures are respected and cared for.

I close my eyes, and forgiveness fills the hearts of the offended.

I close my eyes, and a single strand of pure light runs through the soul of every citizen of the world.

And in that moment, the divisive borders of nations, and race, and religion disappear.

I close my eyes, and every present and future act of war and violence vanishes.

And finally, as I open my eyes, every man, woman and child is holding this same vision of our world at Peace.

For only then... will it be so.
