Peace

Peace is knowing unease
Recedes; and woe, once the wave
Which swallowed old continents,
Shall fall for the bold and brave.

Strength is trust in loving's
Length, justice, and equipoise.
Ridges rise as miracles
Bridge islands and wrecks rejoice.

Virtue waits in patience,
Hurts abate and sorrows cease.
Souls of mercy float, finding
Mirth extolled by prophet peace.
