Chatham
New York hosted an International
Day of Peace event in the center of town. We began at 11
AM with poetry readings, including renowned poets David
Kherdian, Peggy Shriver, Peter Dufault and others. The poems were
folded and hung on the "Peace Tree" as they were read. At
noon, 100 hundred people
joined hands for a minute of
silence followed by a group of home schooled
kids singing a peace song in Spanish. We had some newspaper coverage
and everyone was moved and inspired by the number of of people who
joined and the beauty of the day and the event itself.
