My Part Of Peace

Tharek Ali Mokbul

For Elly Barnes
Thanks for the moment to think……

-My part of peace-

To think for a moment
Is the greatest of gift to me.

To think without fear
Better still….

My part of peace
Detracts in the least
From the good that comes

For times to come.
For times yet to come.
Find peace from the past.
Find light in the dark.

To think for a moment
Is to think for all of time

To think but a thought
to know life

So we remain in mind
A place outside of time.
Forever in a thought

For times to come.
For times yet to come.
Find peace from the past.
Find light in the dark.

To think what we need to
Is sanctioned out of line

To think what we need
in a day where time is tight..

Our view of this world
Reflects off what we hold.
With echoes from the past.

For times to come.
For times yet to come.
Find peace from the past.
Find light in the dark.
