Why do you throw you hands up,
cry out to the universe to grant you peace
when I'm with you all the while?
carried on the fins of the dolphins gliding through the rippling water at sunset;
Peace is with you.
traveling gracefully on the light wind, breathing life into the leaves of ancient trees;
Peace is with you.
radiating through the pride of an old man as he schools you on the whale who dwells off shore;
Peace is with you.
riding on the wings of a blue dasher dragonfly when you're feeling lost;
Peace is with you.
warming your soul on the beaming rays of sunshine after long, sunless days;
Peace is with you.
whispering through the words of a motivational book, seemingly written just for you;
Peace is with you.
hiding in the embraces of your children when you guide them through a rough patch;
Peace is with you.
brushing your tear-streaked cheek through the gentle touch of your spouse's hand;
Peace is with you.
coiling through your system as you inhale all the oxygen you can from the air around you;
Peace is with you.
I am with you always, not hiding but
hidden from you by pride, anger, and angst.
Look beyond those things, and you will find me.
