In Peace

Published on by Susi Bocks
Inspired by this image of VJ Knutson – One Woman’s Quest

nature seems to experience acceptance
far greater than the average human
the cards they are dealt just are
no rebuttal or strain

calm and peace
acknowledged and lived
just like strife and undue unrest
it’s the ebb and flow of life

can humanity just realize that too
go with the flow
get there without interruption
their brain cells just chillin’

is it really too much to ask

  1. Wow a provocative piece that makes one really think. I especially like this Susi:

    “calm and peace
    acknowledged and lived
    just like strife and undue unrest
    it’s the ebb and flow of life”

    Life is hard on us and why does it have to be so hard. Lovely work!

  7. I think these words from Walt Whitman aptly sum up your poem Susi ..
    “After you have exhausted what there is in business, politics, conviviality, and so on – have found that none of these finally satisfy, or permanently wear – what remains? Nature remains.” ― Walt Whitman
