Do we make it anew each day, like bread? Can we start where we are? Does it have anything to do with our lives and how we think, or is it about the politics of nations? One hundred forty poems teach, inspire, and awaken us to the meaning of peace. Includes work by Naomi Shihab Nye, Judy Chicago, Arthur Sze, Margaret Randall, Joy Harjo, Jane Hirshfield, Ruth Stone, Thomas Fitzsimmons, and many others.
