may your spirit
                     find peace
  and your mind
receive the clarity due
with gentle thoughts
          guiding you
                 through days
when clouds encroach
   on your sky
and trees cannot offer
    the comfort
                  of a shadow
reach out for the light
    reach up
                and find
your own sunshine
          let it burn for all
   your hopes and with
all your strength
                 and stillness

           om shanti
                                                                    j.g.l.
