peaced

peace stepped in

and sat right down

in my lap.

grabbed my face

between its letters,

blew something i didn't

know into my eyes

and started laughing!

it was really chuckling, rolling

around on the ground like

a lunatic in joy. it was, well,

something to see.

i was perplexed.

couldn't figure it

out for nothing in the world.

just cus i didn't

recognize this flow.

didn't know that peace

knew how to have fun or

even tell a joke. let alone

be bent over in the middle

of waves of guffaw-ing.

then in a lil while i saw

this lil glimmer. right

in the middle of peaceful's

eye. it started to spread out

like a grand eagle walking.

and then all the sudden
all i could see were wings
opening up into
a
WHOOOSH!

 it was a mighty sight to reckon.

then it had the nerve to speak!
said, "join me."

all the sudden

this uncontrollable urge

to blast out a down right

raucous and fancy

long riff of laughter

coursed through my

belly.

left me all topsy turvy

and back up again. then

rolled me into a ball of

shaking joy.

i tell you, as moments go?

it was a real stunner.

and the kicker?

its still going on in my soul. everlasting.

now, ain't that something?
