Peace We Have To Find

Rating: 5.0


Is night after day?
Or is day after night?
Is fight after peace?
Or is peace after fight?

Is tree from seed?
Or is seed from tree?
Is free after clumsy?
Or is clumsy after free?

Is sleeping after eating?
Or eating after sleeping?
Is drinking after chewing?
Or chewing after drinking?

Is sea after land?
Or is land after sea?
Is bee after cocoon?
Or cocoon after bee?

Is tail after head?
Or is head after tail?
Is hell after heaven?
Or is heaven after hell?

It is a riddle of course
Does arise in mind,
Whatever it may be
Peace we have to find.

What ever be the puzzles before us, peace to a great extent is our own make! Even in a big storm, a rock is never shaken! In the same way, a man who is at peace with himself is never disturbed by external pressures! It was fun reading this riddle poem!
