Peace

This song was written in five minutes while sitting on my porch in Nashville watching the sun go down signaling the start of Yom Kippor. Yom Kippor used to be the worst day of my life as I was raised to think of it as a day of suffering. When I grew old enough to see it as a day of giving up the things of this world so that I removed all barriers between G-d and me, it became a very sacred day for me. This song expresses the profound peace I was feeling at the time.

Song Against Songs, The by G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011. Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia )
