PEACE

       Peace is the true heaven on Earth
Its not a place to find or a piece of thing to keep
Its not the absence of war nor the absence of conflict
It is a state of mind after we learn to observe and be quiet

Our greatest enemy lies within each of us
Our dreams and desires may push us to be selfish and harsh
Achieving one's dream is not always satisfying
In fact it is the start of endless chasing of everything

So lets seek wisdom more than we seek wealth 
That money and gold cannot buy good health
That our existince in this world is only temporary
So the lesser our fortune, the lesser we worry

Our greatest achievement is taming our own desires
Because we are mere slaves of our bodies until our breath expires
If we learn wisdom from that slavery we earn true freedom
If Ninoy, Mandela and Ghandi did it, of course we can

So peace be with you all my dearest friends
Let's learn to taste heaven before our lives finally end
It can only happen if we gain the wisdom to accept
That we are mere visitors on this planet called Earth. Bow!
