WORLD PEACE: A HYMN TO HARMONY
On this perfect day
I wish to believe
The world is eager to please.
Because,
When crickets’ keep the beat
To birdsong
And bees provide the bass line,
How can anything possibly go amiss?
When in the field beyond the fence,
Tiny animals with brave hearts
Rustle in freshly cut hay,
And horses snuffle deliciously among buttercups and daisies
While relishing the lilac breeze,
And all around us,
Every tree proudly presents its new baby greens,
I want to believe
That the Brill-Creamed crows and magpies
Solemnly providing Peace Patrol
Will prevail,
And we shall all enjoy
WORLD PEACE.

My brand new poetry book, ILLICIT CROISSANTS AT DAWN, is now available on all the Amazons, and comes with its very own, perfectly curated playlist on Spotify. This book is the perfect gift for Mother's Day (or any other day!) as the cover and illustrations were designed by my daughter, Olivia Bossert, who is a fashion photographer and mixed-media artist.
