I dream of a world of peace – Riken Shrestha

hands-on-world-peace

I dream of a world of peace,
Where people can live a life of ease.
World where there is no difference between rich or poor,
Life being pleasant for living ever more.
 
I dream of a world of happiness,
Where there is no sight of selfishness.
Where each and everyone can get their needs,
And have belief in their deeds.
 
I dream of a world of kindness,
Where people can know that the value of love is priceless.
Where people can realize that of earth we are all children, 
And to have a kind heart is better for all men.
 
I dream of a world of loving mates,
Where people can realize all are great.
Where people can know that in this earth, 
With a kind heart people must give birth.
I dream of world of peace,
Where people can live a life of ease!

-Riken Shrestha (Nepal)

Gone Away – Diana Blokzyl

An Angel whispered
take my hand and
come with me
your work here is done.
I went away to a place
where there’s no tears, nor sorrow
only laughter and smiles,
there will always be a Tomorrow.
As I move amongst the clouds.
I’ll look down and smile upon you,
while the angels
sing a heavenly song.
I am not alone
all who went before
are here
they awaited my return.
I know you’ll grieve
and wish I was still here
I am here in the memories
you hold dear.
Remember how much I
love you
and know I took your
love with me.
I did not wish for
you to cry, nor feel sad.
My pain is gone and
I am Free!
Soon you’ll come to me
until then
God will be with you
Just as He’s with me.

Cat Prayer ฅ(≚ᄌ≚)

Now I lay me down to sleep,

I pray this cushy life to keep.

I pray for toys that look like mice,

And sofa cushions, soft and nice.

I pray for gourmet kitty snacks,

And someone nice to scratch my back,

For windowsills all warm and bright,

For shadows to explore at night.

I pray I’ll always stay real cool

And keep the secret feline rule

To never tell a human that

The world is really ruled by cats!
