Anno Mirabilis

The year in which
Peace spoke to Power
and Peace prevailed

The year in which
The voice of Reason
stayed the hand
of War

The year in which
the Wealthy of the
Earth gave way –
and ownership
of All devolved on
All

The year no lock
would hold,
no act of violent
Will
prevail, no order
find
its tongue

This was the year
of Peace and
Pause,
The year
of
Silence.
