Peace be with you, my friend.
Be yours until the end
both inside and outside.
May you have peace of mind.
May the stars be aligned
in your favor always.
May the gift of good health
be a part of your wealth
all the days of your life.
In the times you can't hide
from disruptions outside,
may calmness direct you.
All this I wish for you.
Please share with others, too.
This poem is a French form called chanso.
I am a poet and photographer who likes sports, jazz and art inspired by other art. I served in the U.S. Marine Corps during the early 1970's and was assigned to the Computer Sciences School in Quantico, VA. I have published a chapbook of grief poems, I Keep You with Me. My work also has appeared in publications such as Thorny Locust Magazine, core. zine,The Enigmatist, Veterans' Voices and Kansas Time + Place An Anthology of Heartland Poetry. My visual art pieces combine poetry and photographs, and have been most recently displayed at InterUrban ArtHouse, Johnson County Arts & Heritage Center, Buttonwood Art Space, and The Smalter Gallery.
