May this suffering we endure be eased
May our desire for compassion be pleased
May our greed and excessive want be tamed
May none among us feel scorned or shamed
May we acknowledge the faults we bear
May we recognize those values we share
May our humility extend the olive branch and dove
May our hearts embrace our differences with love
May we learn to understand and to forgive
May this darkness we've succumbed to be short-lived
May we know a friend when times are hard to cope
May we never lose our faith, our love, our hope
May our wars and acts of violence forever cease
May our tomorrow unwrap the gift of healing peace

This was a beautiful peice, even a mantra. I absolutely loved it. Each line equally important in the world's quest for truth.
Hello, Leslie,
Yes, you are right. A mantra is a good explanation, at least that's the way it feels to me when recited. Thank you for reading this, as always, and sharing your thoughts.
