A Peace Garden

February 14, 2011

We are starting a peace garden.  A garden that gives us peace.  Are there certain elements necessary for our garden, some design concepts to embrace it?  Should there be a grove, a pergola with vines?  Should we invite butterflies and birds to give us their peace?  If we bring peace with us can we leave some there?  Will the peace grow from the ground and meet the sky half-way?  This garden has a highway at its side, whatever will make that noise go away.  We do not need to do anything.  People come here for contemplation without a garden, but when you behold these lovely works of art, they quietly wait for you, my friend, come in peace.
