Stillness is a virtue
A shapeless thing that hums
Beneath the surface of being
Momentarily punctuating time
Light falls across the floor
Bringing with it the shadow of the evening
Or the golden break of dawn
Amid a chorus of birdsong
Eyes are closed
Lips pressed against the wind
Doubts surrender to what is

Mind adrift
The body bends
To inner guidance
Intuition
A feeling invited in
Agenda falls to the wayside
In favour of breathing
Deeper
Calm is found within a haze
Touched by chaos and
The smell of rain
Wrapped in a sentimental warmth
Moments like these are not easily
Let go
Solitude marks its place
In the centre of one’s palm
A gentle protest for self
A gentle protest for repose
