Too Much Peace
Write a poem inspired by or containing these words. Is there such a thing as too much peace?
A Lonely World
When you wake up to silence
Not a cheer, nor a call
no footsteps running around
your clean and polished hall
As you make yourself breakfast
some bread, and some tea
it is when you then realize
there is just too much peace
When there's no birds chirping
no sweet songs in the air
not a friendly neighbor hello
or a compliment on your wear
You sit on your porch
and watch the clear blue skies
this peaceful world, it crumbles
before your very eyes
So is it truly peaceful,
when you are all alone?
When your loved ones quiet down,
and take no space at home?
Do you really find it peaceful,
without a bird around?
Without a single neighbor making
unnecessary sound.
A world with just you in it,
is not always a masterpiece.
After all it exists;
having just TOO much peace!
