The Seasons of Peace
by Robert H. Beers

Peace is the child of spring,
Spring is the mother of May
May is the sister of love,
Who wakes at the dawning of June,

Summer's the father of all,
Fall is the rustle of leaves,
Leaves and the colors of joy,
That grow in the seasons of Peace,

Snow is the blanket of hope,
Tending the cradle of peace,
For peace is the blessing of love
That sleeps on the bosom of spring,

Soft is the coming of love,
That walks with the mother of May,
Tender the moment in June,
When peace is the child of spring.

False are the bickering reigns
Of honor, of homeland, of war
That nourish the torrents of hate,
and flow through the valleys of death,

Cold are the patriot winds
That scatter the bittering weed,
Strong are the seedlings of truth
That grow in the seasons of peace.
