A Piece About Peace

Peace.
a large piece of the puzzle
of life
of love
of the world.
Without it,
chaos will erupt.
With it,
inspirations and dreams will come true.
Will you be a piece of the puzzle?
the peace that is so needed?






Peace.
a way of life.
protest signs.
two fingers.
lives told; lives saved.
fought for.
necessary.
a beautiful thing.
Darfur, Rwanda, the Middle East:
in deep need of peace.
people die without it.
peace will save us all.

The title doesn't work.

I think the play on words with peace and piece can work, but you need to play with it a little more. Right now the first stanza flows like prose rather than poetry.

The beginning of the second stanza is beautiful, but then the rhythm is lost here, "Darfur, Rwanda, the Middle East:
in deep need of peace.
people die without it.
peace will save us all. "
