Conversation peace

Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)



Why must we suffer
to find peace?

Its genius
simplicity, itself

That there was,
nowhere else to turn

Making the inherent love
between us

Multiply, like fish
and loaves of bread

shared

A voice heard
among the many

Spoken words
filling hearts, with hope

Renewed faith
flowing, inside our spirits

Fed,
by the waters of life
