Peace Through Poetry

This poem began on The National Day of Writing, Oct 20th, 2010. Student & Staff Poets at McKinleyville High School composed acrostic PEACE poems and began sharing them.

We invite you to continue to build peace through poetry. Your acrostic poem may be single words or phrases. It can rhyme or it can be free verse. You may post more than one poem. The only requirement is that it is an acrostic poem that spells PEACE. Post a poem by posting a comment. Next steps, we hope to randomly combine the poems to create a renewed message of peace.

This is our continuous message that we as individuals will commit to working towards peace in our school, community, and world with ourselves, others and our environment. One poem at a time.

Plentiful resources
Encourage others and oneself
Active but not rushed
Contentment with deeper meanings
Engaged in nature

Patriots uniting
Engraving history
Activating list’s of change
Communing in ways that are yet to been seen
Entering both into and away from a king

Peace is asking for perfection
Expecting more than expected
Asking for somthing bigger than stars
Came as a prince and left his love
Emits the same truth we see in a dove.

Perfect unity in
Everything we strive for
At times when war
Can't solve
