	Story Behind the Song I was inspired by the Potlucks for Peace movement begun in Seattle, Wa. in response to the war in Iraq. People were feeling isolated and afraid. The lyrics invite people to have potlucks for peace and suggest what can result from this form of community building, including alleviating fear, fostering understanding and empowerment. Lyrics VERSE 1: We gather together to break bread and heal, To share our concerns and the fear that we feel. We serve up hope that will not cease, At this great communion, a Potluck for Peace. VERSE 2: We cook and we share, and as we fill our bowls, We feed our minds and nourish our souls, We open our hearts and plan our next move. Peace is the postulate we're here to prove. CHORUS: At Pot-lucks for Peace, Gather 'round, all fears release. Come share some food, a thought, a prayer, For peace in our hearts, here and everywhere. VERSE 3: We may not have "pot", but "luck" here abounds! As peace flows through us, from the sky to the ground. We connect to the Earth, ourselves, and all hearts. In a world needing peace, this is where it starts.
