Peace shows trust between many nations and cultures
Peace gives hugs to make people feel wanted
Krysanne
The storm has ceased,
A child lifts its bright and curious eyes to the clearing sky,
A splay of shimmering colors arches gracefully across the blue expanse,
A sure promise of much better after such misery.
Krista
Peace is knowing that God,
Healer and friend of all time, is on my side.
Peace is the nature which encircles us
captivating our beauty from within.

Peace is a quiet Sunday morning; sunset
Peace is a fresh new millennium to live
Justin
Peace is a bright upside down rainbow,
like a smile raining happiness on the troubled world.
Peace is more valuable than one's wealth,
and more precious than jewels.
It is so easy to talk about,
yet, so hard to fulfill.
Jenna
Peace is like the heavens way up high
somewhere you can go, where it's okay to cry.
Peace is the feeling you know you have achieved
an awesome feeling to help those who have grieved.
JC
A white quilt of snow, impenetrable as steel,
envelops the dying land and slowly heals it back to health.
A white dove floats into a battlefield,
like a flame being lit on a moonless night.
Screams of the dead, from a war of the past, echo for eternity, but
are now silenced, by the gentle call, of a dove.
A simple indifference, of a point of view, between two forces
has been finally solved by a humble apology.
Eddy
Peace is the comfort of you and your feelings
it is the ease of being along and knowing all is well
peace is love compassion and comfort.
peace is not ward
Darcy
Locked away in the midst of war is peace;
we are the key.
A white flag fluttering in the breeze;
war has come to an end.
When the wars cease,
there will be peace.
Peace is a dove,
representing hope and joy to a famine filled world.
Cheri
Peace is a paintbrush,
that gives us our colours.
Peace is when bullets no longer hurt,
when shotguns are disintegrated.
Colour gives us what we are,
we just have to use their peace.
Charles
Allow no God and find no peace.
Know your God and know peace.
A voluminous field flows one way,
a nagging call home obligates one to stay.
In a room of physical tangibility,
a mind erases all, but one.
The question is over, the tension released,
all thoughts lead to nowhere, no emotions are creased.
White clouds, enveloped in blue
strongly reveal after a tussle of sides.
Ben
Birds chirping, sun shining, and children laughing
that is what peace is made of?
Peace is contagious laughter
just like a star shining brightly through the midnight sky.
Peace is silent as a world without violence
and a world with love.
Ashley
Look at the white dove in the blue sky
I love watching the beautiful dove fly so high.
Let me lay here so I can die,
then I don't have to sit here and cry.
Take me up to the bright blue sky,
so I can lay there and die.
War is a fight that should of never started,
and now we have to pay for it.
Alaina
The old frail man laid comfortably on a big soft foamy couch.
The bright sun shone brightly into delicate blue sky while the dog
basked in the sun dreaming of catching a cat.
Adam
Pure and clean; innocent is she, who lifts her head,
and smiles angelically at me.
Truth be told, a child is she, who spreads her warmth,
through smile, to me.
So peace exists, for look at me! I found it here,
right at my knee.
Sheleena
While the storm cloud shuts every soul inside,
It brings vital rain to the parched land and encourages the poor man's
crop.
While war takes husbands and fathers, sons and brothers,
It frees poor men and brings revival to the oppressed.
Krista
Peace is like war;
One man can make a difference.
Peace is the love
expressed over warm apple pie.

Clean, clear and cool.
