Their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

At that hour a young woman entered her chamber and knelt by her bed sobbing bitterly. Her heart flamed with agony but she could finally open her lips and say, 'Oh Lord, bring him home safely to me. I have exhausted my tears and can offer no more, oh Lord, full of love and mercy. My patience is drained and calamity is seeking possession of my heart. Save him, oh Lord, from the iron paws of War; deliver him from such unmerciful Death, for he is weak, governed by the strong. Oh Lord, save my beloved, who is Thine own son, from the foe, who is Thy foe. Keep him from the forced pathway to Death's door; let him see me, or come and take me to him.'

O the beautiful sharp-bow'd steam-ships and sail-ships!)

They want to perpetuate the progress in rise.
Some vie in earning wealth to live happily,
Attractive edifices they build to reside properly.

To own my heart: I yield you do come sometimes; but

But not to me.

The shepherds went their hasty way,
And found the lowly stable-shed
Where the Virgin-Mother lay:

May be Herculean task but agreed to reduce tension

Atmosphere is also not favourable with depletion of ozone’s

Time ceases when I enter my silent domain

The walks were carpeted with snow,

Has passed me by;
Afar I see her vesture, velvet-lined,
Float silently;

Who is it lacks the knowledge? Who are the curs that dare
To whine and sneer that they do not fear the whelps in the Lion's lair?

Let the curs beware lest the whelps they dare are the Riders of the Plains;

PEACE is a disturbing word: a small death,
Yes;I died years ago with this very word,

You were lying in a coffin
As I bended over to kiss you for the last time
Yr cold, white skin nearly froze my lips

A Fantasy, dedicated to the little poet Alice Oliver Henderson, ten years old.

The Fantasy shows how tiger-hearts are the cause of war in all ages. It shows how the mammoth forces may be either friends or enemies of the struggle for peace. It shows how the dream of peace is unconquerable and eternal.

Path Of Peace
By Paul Mc Cann
...

Stay away, stay away you are danger
Changer of peace you are bad manger.
Violence you are nobody likes you,
To turn your face soon you have view.
...

There is population but in tranquillity,
Over humanity again falls on humility.
Stability of mind all do search far again,
Nobody likes sorrows, sin, sad and pain.
...

With white clouds and sky
The wings are flying constant
Peace is born free flight
...

Dear beloved soul how are you?
Where are you searching peace?
How can you get this in running?
Just wake up early in dawn again.
...

Cutting throats of others is injustice,
Such thing is violence,
If you are a violent man,
You should leave it and leave vices,
...

We search for peace oh God
But we need peace special
That is eternal symbol
We need love and life again.
...

A man must earn his hour of peace,
Must pay for it with hours of strife and care,
Must win by toil the evening's sweet release,
The rest that may be portioned for his share;
...

We advise because you are going out,
You are going out of track from duty,
Responsibility you should understand,
Importance of time you should feel.
...

The Christ-child lay on Mary's lap,
His hair was like a light.
(O weary, weary were the world,
But here is all aright.)
...

Where is the place for peace?
How can we find this we think
War and violence make us sad
Sorrow gives stress and pain.
...

God, you are beloved and truth,
You have empowered us from within,
We get inner peace due to wisdom,
You have taught us with much love.
