"The path to peace is never easy..." Another great poem by Stewart Acuff

I posted a poem from Stewart Acuff the other day. Here is another great poem and photograph from him. He's a deep thinker and a great poet. Look carefully around you with love. There is lots to learn in the world around us.

The path to peace is never easy
Love is action not just feeling
Justice requires vigilance and not letting go
Watch two or three songbirds mob a crow
To drive it from their eggs, babies and homes
The egret stands still and silent on stilt like legs waiting
Till its neck straightens from its snake curl striking
All day the egret waits and watches for every bite
Just as a hungry owl hunts through the night
Sometimes an entire people can act as one
When we act to defend our children and our folks' freedom.
