The Writing on the Wall

If peace and harmony

Come together once again,

It is time to throw away the anger

And the hatred;

They are not worthy of us,

They find no place in the soul of man.

 

Touch the still point within,

Where inner peace is to be found;

 

Undo the madness of the game,

Nowhere did it lead mankind,

Release the players from their bonds,

That they may live life again.

 

We had been fearful

To act in accord with our conscience,

We had learned, at some cost,

To take things in our stride.

 

The messenger spoke

To his fellows turn by turn,

And from the medley of his speech,

He spun a weave for men to wear.

 

He taught freedom

From tumult and from war,

He brought with him the blessings

Of the lord that nurtures life.
