May Peace Be Upon You Poem by Mark Hurlin Shelton

May Peace be upon you
tread soft on the ground
May we spread peace-
May it fall all around
Peace be upon you-
To your fathers and mothers
Peace be on your cousins
your uncles and brothers
Peace be on the sinner
Peace be on the stranger
May peace forever win you
And keep you from danger
May peace be upon you
Like drops of light rain
May peace wash you new
Till you cease from all pain
Peace to our children
Through all generations
Peace to the people
Of all lands and all nations
Peace to the lost and peace to the lonely
Peace to the fearful
May Peace find them only
Peace to the Believers
and the non believers
A Peace that is true
can never deceive us.
Peace be to Buddha
and Mohamed and Christ
May peace pave the road
To Paradise
Peace be on your home
Your workplace and schools
May peace be upon you
May peace be the rule-
Peace in your community
Peace in your land
Peace on your continent
Peace we understand
Peace in Afganistan and peace in Syria-
Peace In Iraq
Timbuktoo and Bolivia..
Peace in Paris, In London, and Cork
Peace at Ground zero,
Trade centre New York.
Peace upon Cairo and on Istanbul
Peace in Nairobi and Peace in Kabul

Peace be upon Gaza,
And peace upon Zion
Peace to the lamb
And peace to the Lion

Peace be upon Mecca
And Jerusalem
And goodwill among
all women and men
Asalaam Aleikum
And Shalom Aleichem

Peace be upon Russia
and Peace be upon China
Peace we desire
No thing can be finer.

Peace be upon your friends
And Peace be on your foes
May peace fill you up
From your head to your toes
Peace be upon Buddhists
Muslims Christians and Jews
Peace be on your heart
May deep peace be with you
I wish a deep peace
On the atheists too.
And peace be on your mind
And peace fill your soul
May peace make you kind
May peace make us whole

Peace be upon those
with whom you disagree
And peace be upon your enemy
May peace be upon yesterday's battlefield
To a God of peace and mercy
may we surrender and yield.
And may a Holy Peace return to the earth
Like light rain from Gods sky
Or Like an inner rebirth
May His peace fill your eyes
May His peace bring you Mirth
Let violence not be upon you
Nor your enemy
Nor may it be on the Aborigine
Nor upon Gypsy, Arab
-Palestinian or Jew
May lasting peace guide you
in all that' you do.
May peace be upon you-
in peace let there be no lack
Peace be on all colors
yellow, caucasian or black.



In every prayer of your heart
and all that is true
Peace be on your neighbours
And may Peace be upon you.
