Peace Comments
Sweet Peace, where dost thou dwell? I humbly crave,
Let me once know.
I sought thee in a secret cave,
And ask'd, if Peace were there,

Lovely poem with a soothing narrative about peace in life. Thanks.
If you seek it diligently, you will find it (Peace.) It is not too likely that Mr. Herbert will read these comments, as he died of tuberculosis in 1633. He became one of England's finest metaphysical potes. His brother, Edward, became the father of English deism. George was commended by Sir Francis Bacon, and was also elected to Parliament. Many of his proverbs survive today: Whose house is of glass must not throw stones at another. Theeye is bigger than the belly. His bark is worse than his bite. Thank you, Poem Hunter, for featuring the work of this remarkable man!
Peace is always hunted everywhere in the world..... Nice piece...
Where can I find Peace! Peace dwells within..wonderful poem..
That virtue lies therein; A secret virtue, bringing peace and mirth By flight of sin Thanks for the sharing.
In a secret cave! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
Sweet Peace, where dost thou dwell? I humbly crave, Let me once know, lovely peace seeker
Beautiful poem...it shows how peace can also be found in rare places
(Peace - Poem by George Herbert.) peace is a much desired commodity. Men of all ages sought for it.
Dear, Big Poet I love this ppem of peace, I invite you to visit my poem also Regards
wow, amazing art, there is a deep meaning to it, simple, sweet narrative, it has been linked to become a beautiful but emotional story..bravo!
So...to make the seeker find peace, a reverend tells a story about a peaceful man who dies at the hand of his foes...then wheat springs up from his grave and soon people were making bread from the grains...not feeling it!
Well, that made me chuckle. And I think it's quite perceptive. The kindly, sweet prince cannot generate peace in his realm as he lives. A sovereign who profits well in life with no mention of how his subjects fared. Only somehow we must believe his virtue contributed to something good that was widely shared after his death. Yeah, I'm kinda not feeling it now either. Although I initially wanted to see the peaceable reward in working the land and in the honest fulfillment of a home-baked loaf of bread. But there's kind of a hole in the center of the argument.
this is talking about a man who died and new life sprang from him to give peace to the world... also it takes place in Salem, a holy city. Am i the only one who realized he's saying you can only find peace in God?
great poerty on peace you can go see my poems also if you would.
Great write. This id the best poem I ever read on PEACE. Its so simple and easy to relate with. True prace is not in things but the CREATOR through His Son, Jesus Christ
