The Peace Seeker

From the poetry collection Silent Tears
Once upon a time, cheap Christmas Decorations
A true peace lover wandered around the many worlds in search
of eternal happiness.
She walked over the face of the earth, the suns, the moons and
the clouds.
At last she found:
That it was all the while hidden in her very heart.
Then she sat down.
And was about to enjoy the new found Bliss.
But suddenly she looked down:
And saw countless beings were still grovelling in darkness,
for they’re searching for happiness without.
Just like her before erring over millions of ages.
Her tears were then rolling down…
One drop, two drops … and many more…
Each drop became a shining jewel and soon the firmament was
studded with glittering tears which are the stars today,
They are too shy in the day and too restless in the night
to go to sleep.
For all peace seekers.
The stars are there to light the Way
And to remind them of the compassion of a holy Sage.
