Poetic Emotion

Path of Inner Peace


By feeling satisfied with what I have,
I feel no envy.
By giving freely to those who will take,
I feel no anger.
by understanding the fears of others,
I feel no hate.
By accepting the diverseness of others,
I feel no judgment.
By recognizing the specialness of all,
I feel no self importance.
By sensing the wonders of Mother Earth,
I feel humble.
By knowing all that I can do,
I feel my worth.
By accepting what I cannot do,
I feel humility.
By these feelings,
I walk the path of peace.
