Feeding the Gulls

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

Imagine a poem praising war...

It’s a lie.
Or propaganda.
Or very bad poetry.
Or all of the above.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

I feel the warmth of the sun, and I know peace.
I feel the dampness of the rain, and I know peace.
I feel the brightness of the light, and I know peace.
I feel the touch of the breeze, and I know peace.
I feel the fire of passion, and I know peace.
I feel the energy of hope, and I know peace.
I feel the promise of peace, and it is well with my soul.
Amen
