The Sound of Peace

The Sound of Peace: powerful
Powerful as a prayer, the sound of a prayer: a dream, an everlasting dream

The sound of friends and family laughing together
The pristine beauty and calm of small towns nestled among snow covered hills
The feeling of a sea breeze that comes of crystal blue waters nipping at the shore
The setting of the sun below the skyline in the backdrop
Church bells chiming signaling the start of Sunday services which bring people together as one
Snow falling upon a small, peaceful neighborhood during Christmas Eve
Carolers singing calming hymns
The sound of rain hitting the window in the middle of the night
Hearing a judge give justice for harm done to a person by another
The meeting of lips between a husband and wife
The sound of a mother singing a lullaby to her newborn child
The sound of winds whipping through mountain aspens
The cooing of a dove perched on a willow tree and
waking up to the chirping of birds outside your window signaling the start of a new and better day, a day full of hope and happiness

I liked all of the imagery in this. My only thought is that the first stanza could have read easier with "The sound of peace: powerful Powerful as a prayer, the sound of prayer: a dream, an everlasting dream" JMO
Good write
