In this poem the poet emphasizes on Hope! Hope is the seed which, if nurtured with patience & courage, sprouts into Peace. The diligent determination to carry on and the tenacity to endure every obstacle, grief, pain and challenge is what ultimately brings the first rays of joy. So as long as we have hope, peace is not too far !!

My Description of Peace
Icicles nailed within my heart,
Hopelessly I wait on my wheelchair;
My eyes; a gloomy sky,
So predictable it’s going to rain
Its Peace I require, Its Life I fight for
Without God my soul is dead;
My spirit flows low
Life cannot be spent; maudlin
I thought despair was worth a try
Inexorable pain; from within
Interminably, showers from inside;
Misconstrued; lavish
Circumstances; what a coincidence
…Its abrupt; all begin to change!
And then one day, I’ve crossed the river;
Like a dove; I’m now free
Put a stop to the quiver;
Restart life, but with help; Pardee
Oh! Is that joy I hear?
Cherishable memories will once again greet!
I’ve found Hope, I’ve found Peace;
My life no more an endless song;
It’s now time for sadness to cease
A nature infused with limitless inspirations,
When the thoughts I think translate into prayer,
Wonderful miracles yet not discovered;
Destinations… Do I dare?
Relief… The victory is mine!
The good succeed
The bad perish
Let peace and hope proceed
Out there; is an entirely different description?
An exquisite piece of advice;
Let it all be temptations, and BELIEVE!
