 About the Writer Of '' Peace '' Poem

Dr. Silvia Hartmann has a special taste for psychology and spiritual sciences in her poetry. She uses imagery in her poetry. In this poem, she also uses imagery and describes two opposite aspects of wind. She says that wind in the form of a storm smashes everything. In its rage, it destroys trees, fields and buildings. But when the wind is gentle and cool it gives life to buds, birds and humans. We have to experience both aspects of wind. Though wind storm brings disaster, but we have to experience them to enjoy peace. There lies peace in the depth of this disaster.
