Define peaceful.
Where the world doesnt bother me.
Where my work is in my home.
Where i dont need to worry about anything.
Where my love holds my hand day and night.
Where good is good, bad is bad. Right is right, wrong is right.
Where no one is loud.
Where we walk to the sunday bazar, to pick the fresh fish and a loaf of bread. Walk down and people say, Bongiorno... come stai? Andiamo.
Where theres a spot by the lake, where we snack every night.
Everyone knows everyone.
Bonfire. No worries. Light music.
No waves on the lake.
You know whose face i see when i imagine all of this? My lady.
The walls are beautiful.
The houses are painted in subtle colours.
The mosque is around the corner.
And butchers bring halal meat for you.
The roads are not tarmac, bricks laid 100 years ago.
The car doesnt need A/C.
The people dont quarrel.
The money is not a problem.
Slipper or no slippers, the ground is yours. The world feels fresher.
Where there are farms of strawberries.
Cheesemakers.
I love everything about a place like this.
Tourists come. And you invite them over. Listen to their stories. Tell them our stories. How we started, How we got here. And look at each other with love in our eyes. Smile on our faces.
Where big is not important, cozy is important.
Where people dont compete with each other. Everyone is just content.
A funeral is attended by the whole town.
A wedding is attended by the whole town.
Where the streets are safe.
Where the lights are from the dam nearby.
No bills.
Where there are water springs nearby. Drink from it, feel youthful. You live longer this way, you age slower. Worries wrinkle your face.
Humidity is low, the hair doesnt mess up.
Sunlight is mild, the face doesnt tan.
The temperature is cool, the socks dont stink.
