 Power of Peace

I was sitting in meditation the other day when a thought invaded.
This thought was pure and simple, one that you can focus on.
So I did. I sat and released myself into the power of this thought.
Peace was all that the thought's seed was;  peace without definition.
It germinated freely without my control, without the walls of convention;
Developing into a precept within my soul,  bringing a gentle wave of calm.

The power of peace is without barriers when allowed to run it's course.
I was able to make peace within my soul with the reality that I desired,
And the reality that actually exists within this moment of time.
Freedom soared like the eagle on the evening's thermals, bringing stillness.
Quest sat with me and acknowledged the wisdom within this moment.
In agreement, we sat, absorbing the power of this truth.

When my meditation was complete, my prospective had changed.
No longer at war with reality,  peace came as acceptance was embraced.
My life had changed within this twenty minutes with my dog, Quest;
As we joined our souls in the search of the depths of universal truth.
Gentle waves caress my soul with delight in the afterglow of that moment.
Growing within my heart is the power of peace.
