Peace Pilgrim's Pocket How old are you, Peace?/I am ageless!/Only three things in her pocket/comb toothbrush postage stamps/With those three possessions she lived/so many (secret number) years/making millions of friends/hiking byways and back roads/crossing the nation again and again/town to town thousands of miles/unafraid/Life is a mirror!/Smile at it, it smiles back!/woman with a white bun/striding by herself in a navy blue tunic/white tennis shoes/no money no credit cards no tickets/opening her mouth wherever people would listen/Never stop your efforts for peace!/walking till someone offered a bed/fasting till they offered food/Personal peace necessary before world peace! Every good thing you say... vibrates on and on/and never ceases!/I am standing outside under ageless pecan trees/listening to the voice I first heard in my/parents' living room/as a girl of three/Would you kill a cow?/The three-year-old said, Never!/Then how can you eat meat? Why let someone else do your dirty work for you? She was thrilled to turn kids into vegetarians/I'm only a little person but/there are lots of little things to be done!
