What do you think this poem is about?

Far From Everybody

FAR FROM EVERYBODY

Far from everybody
Far from the world of my dreams
Alone in silence I sit
A breeze comforts-

Peace Quiet Distance
My mind is at ease-

How blessed I have been all these years
With a mind that could find times of peace -

My father my dear Father
Who always prayed and pleaded for ‘Peace of Mind'
And could not find it

I am the dream your life realized.

    Peace is a jewel. To have it is a fortune. And the heart that finds it is blessed. Your father would be very happy to know that you are so fortunate. And may you continue to be blessed with such PEACE.
