E Pluribus Unum - a poem of peace

From a great many souls
Come together as one
Calm rising verse
Of a bright morning sun

All the world watches
All carry a share
Growing resolve
In burdens to bear

Many lost thoughts
From within and without
Bolster the power
For another lost bout

Gathering of believers
In faith, peace, and light
Differing perceptions
Hope deepens the night

Vision for a future
Of generations new
Breathing in each day
Each dawn's refreshing dew

Integrity of truth
Example to behold
Noon or dark of night
True selves, standing bold

Faith in the heart of all
Bolstered by a longstanding vow
Walk in light to serve the world
In peace and calm we bow

The Universe is watching
Let's join her high acclaim
Children of a world
Renewed in a simple aim

Days are growing longer
As the seasons change and flow
Reaching for a higher place
Let peace be all we know

Fate of lives is in our hands
Let's pause for a moment to reflect
Release the view of difference
No race, No belief, No sect

All who walk will age
As lessons in time are earned
Greatest of these, forgiveness
Know peace when it is learned

Likewise as a people
It's time to end the zeal
Peace in a newfound day
As poets choose to heal
