Week 41: "52 Weeks of Peace"
I found this stone in my backyard …
“Stairways to Peace”
The path to peace is not often straight. Sometimes you have to climb around, zig and zag, twist and turn; maybe even go upside down for a while. But however you arrive, the door is welcoming… and patiently waiting to be opened.

If peace were a flower, what better than this? ~ one of simplicity and cheer, with purity of heart, mind and soul; long-blooming and resilient … a pleasant thought indeed!
“Cosmic Peace”
Dare to dream upon the stars ~
Dare to dream of peace,
Beaming
From life’s grandest stage ~
Unrestrained,
Where thousands
fold to millions ~
Shining. Alighting. Dancing,
Through an endless velvet sky.
Floating in layers
of patterns on patterns,
Shades of bright white
Shimmering
In the blackened pool
Of an upside down sea.
Eternity’s dream catcher ~
Twinkling,
Winking,
Silver-rimmed storytellers ~
Architects of heaven ~
A symphony of light
Plucked from the night
For all time.
Beacons,
Guides,
Galactic jewels,
Wished upon
and worshipped,
Where secrets
are surrendered
And wonders breathe ~
Bright,
Inconceivable and constant.
Finding this site was “kid in a candy store” material.
First I stumbled onto their Books & Logos page … and knew I’d hit gold when the intro sentence read: “Books and logos. The combination thereof is almost enough to send me into a fit.”
Anyone who’s a book lover will appreciate at least some of this, designers will appreciate the rest, and for those of us who are both, it’s drool-worthy – an inspired virtual thrill, a well-presented and joyful clustering of literary visual candy.
