Middle path of peace

9 Comments

True peace flows

In the middle path.

In between the extremes

Of nature is the path.

Extreme states create vulnerability

For the very strength of rigidity

Is in its ability to structure into solidity.

But solidity may not quantify solidarity.

Shaping matter to form

Is prone to creating cracks

In the spaces between shapes,

And gaps are prone to fragility.

To thrive in the optimum

Is to value continuum,

Which brings adaptability

Along with acceptability.

Our beautiful world,

This ball of blue,

Has much at stake

In these times of vulnerability.

Our nations may play on

With tactics and goodwill,

Balancing acts in deliberation,

Taking much into consideration.

To reach out,

To stay put,

To align,

To withdraw

For extreme states

Are a weakness in itself.

Extreme power by itself

Is a very dangerous tool,

Denoting self-destruction

As much as calamity in chaos.

The solution is thus,

Steering into the middle path.

When a structure gets too rigid,

Allow spaces for destressing.

When situations become hostile,

Breathe in to empathize.

When a war of words ensues,

Consider the art of negotiation.

For it is never bullets that truly win;

It is the people who do.

Steer into the path of peace.

Allay fears and acknowledge the futility

Of living in the extremes.

Tread in awareness of the middle path.

Peace is not won in battles.

Peace reigns in the heart of man.

Make way for the inner light to step out.

Let peace and goodwill guide the way!
