A Peaceful Place


How blessed am I to have a place
Of such security
That I can live without the fear
Of raw brutality.
 
I go to sleep each night in peace,
And each day I’m still free.
I live my life with peace of mind
That others earned for me.  
 
I don’t have all that I might want,
But I’m not one for greed.
Since I have peace, and just enough,
I have all that I need.
 
So, yes, I live a simple life,
I live it peacefully.
And I lift thanks to God for those
Who give that peace to me.
