Peace

I knew war and was in disarray
I was turmoil itself and in constant battle
Too busy to breathe, too distracted to pray
Too easy to lead astray like cattle
Too unsettled to stay in one place
Too deaf to listen, too proud to kneel
But then I knelt, bowed my heart, lowered my face
And was lifted to share in a meal
I knew war, but peace entered this space
I had known the word but had not understood
Peace is busier than war
But a business that is lively, wholesome, and good
Shaking me unto my core
By this I know your presence
By this I seek your essence




God bless,
