Write A Poem About Where And When You Feel Most At Peace 1 years ago
The Peace Within
I find myself in a peaceful state
More oftentimes than not
This truth was not always so
Often wrapped up in my thoughts
Until I chose to make a shift, realizing
My life won’t wait
This world I experience is a reflection of what I choose to create
I feel this peace in my daily rhythm
My connection to the source
Where once I was lost in a schism
I now find faith in that unseen force
Love, ease and grace encompass me
And teach me to embrace
Life’s ebb and flow and still I grow
Each moment an open spaceSo where is it I find this peace?
It is held within the trees
The wind I feel upon my soft skin
And the golden sun is a great place to begin
The stillness of a moment of breath
Brings me to an even greater depth
I find these moments everywhere
Because I know my source is thereI feel complete gratitude and know this fact to be true
The holy source that lights this life
Begins with me and you
The beauty of a snowy day, patterns made in ice
Learning to revere all the turning seasons
Each holding an important lesson
Growth, patience, perspective, Enduring reasons
Each holding their own blessingsMy prayer today is to share that peace with each being I get to meet
So I’ll strive to be the light inside that I so dearly wish to see.Voting is closed

Wow, Sofia, this is such a beautiful piece of poetry. People can find peace all around them, or so they think. Having true peace is having peace with yourself on the inside and changing your mindset so that peace can be found all around you. My favorite line of yours is “This world I experience is a reflection of what I choose to create” because every action you take will eventually have some sort of effect on your life! Life is full of various freedoms and the most important one is doing what makes you happy and brings you the most peace. Wonderful poem, very inspiring!
