Walk peace…

For the Blogger’s Silent Poetry Reading, a poem from Thich Nhat Hanh:

Kiss the Earth

Walk and touch peace every moment.
Walk and touch happiness every moment.
Each step brings a fresh breeze.
Each step makes a flower bloom.
Kiss the Earth with your feet.
Bring the Earth your love and happiness.
The Earth will be safe
when we feel safe in ourselves.

  3. such a poignant truth but hard for me to practice. i always have to remind myself that for every person we protect, we take one step towards protecting everyone like them.; for every way in which we take good–healthy and wise–care of ourselves, we usually end up caring for the universe.

    thanks for the poem.
