I really enjoyed this piece. I love how you approach the concept of peace from many different, sensual angles: sight, taste, touch. The first stanza is very true. Great work.

Peace, Sweet Peace, take me away from all the stress and pressure in this ugly, hectic life of mine.

Well written, painting a picture that has the power to carry me away from it all. Well written with vivid imagery and a strong descriptive scheme leading to a smooth and enjoyable read. kay

This work has reached the exceptional level

Escapism is alive and well in your poetry. The lines have a soothing quality. I'm almost an insomniac and perhaps I will try getting to sleep tonight while chanting this poem.
A sweet and calming short poem.

Welcome to FanStory. I read this more than once, as I wasn't sure whether I liked the repetition or not. I'm still not sure but I didn't dislike it either. I think I'd like the opportunity to read the piece in its brevity with Peace, sweet peace every fourth line. With that being said, I thought it had a wonderful visual and sensory feel to it. well done I think I would try this with the second and third verses without the starting, repetitive line. Just a thought

    Hi. I actually messed up a bit as I meant to say "without" when I said "with". I think the piece would have more power if the second and third verses did not have the first line. Just try it and see what you think

This is a lovely piece, no pun intended.....very beautiful imagery, and a lot of emotion. We all search for such moments, and we must relish them when they are upon us, for we know not whence they shall return....
