Flowers of Peace

Flowers of Peace
Flowers of peace are falling from the skies,
our eyes with such whiteness become blind.
I can't understand others,
while I don't understand myself.
Flowers of peace reach the earth I see,
they dance gently around our feet.
I can't see them,
while I don't see myself.
Flowers of peace pull softly my hands,
they want to ask me for a favor.
I can't listen to them,
while I don't listen to myself.
What did they whisper?
I can't understand others,
while I don't understand myself.
Flowers of peace approach me,
kissing the tree of my birth,
and in such delight,
I become a flower.
I became a flower of peace,
falling from radiant skies,
until I reach you and blossom,
together, as flowers of peace.
When there is no where to refuge, war seems to be coming closer. Who is manufacturing this war? We create a war if I can’t stand my family, if I can’t stand the dog barking, and even if I can’t stand myself. Why? The biggest war begins within, once you become a flower of peace, you can help others blossom. Are you already a flower of peace?
