THE PATH

THE PATH

The path that leads to war

And the path that leads to peace

Are sometimes the same path

For part of the way

We must depend on Spirit Guides to lead us

The Spirit of Peace and Cooperation has a calm quiet voice

While the Spirit of War rattles sabers and screams curses

Easy to tell apart, easy to decide which to follow

We watchfully wait for the moment we can leave the Path to War

And join hands and hearts as we first carefully place

Our feet on the Path to Peace

In our personal lives, our communities lives

And our worldly lives

We join hands and skip back towards the Garden

Of Comfort and Welcome for all

I bet you can see the pink glow of peace just over the horizon

If we can only keep going, making progress

Because Peace is a kind of Heaven 

Big enough for every one of us.
