PEACE AND GRACE

PEACE AND GRACE

_____________________

IN THE SILENCE

TO THE SONG OF SOUNDS

IN AN OUT OF THE

MOMENT

FOCUSED ON WORKING

AND YET STILL IGNORING

THE PAIN PUTTING

IT IN THE BACK OF MY

MIND

HOURS GO BY

AND MY HEART STILL

FEELS YET ITS CALMER

NOW

LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW

AT THE TREE LEAVES

SLIGHTLY BLOWING

IN THE BREEZE

THEN STILL AS IF A PHOTO

SIMPLISTIC SIGNIFICANCE

THE PLAY OF LIGHT

TO THE SHADES WITHIN

EACH LEAF AND

THE BUNCH AS A WHOLE

THE WAY I VIEW THINGS

TO THE WAY OTHERS

SEE BEAUTY IN THE

TINY SPOTS

THE GRACE OF KNOWING

AND YET LIKE THE

SPARKS OF LIFE

IN ALL THE COLORS THAT

WE ALL KNOW

BLESSED TO SEE

BLESSED TO BE

BLESSED TO JUST

EXPERIENCE

SOUND OF THE FAN

RUNNING AND THE MUSIC

PLAYING TIL IT STOPS

TO THE WAVES WIND

PLAYS ON MY SHIRT

AS IT FLOWS

THE MOMENT IS

THE MOST PRECIOUS

THERE IS

FROM THE SMELL

OF MY INK AND THE

GOLDEN COLOR

TO THE TASTE OF

MY COOL REFRESHING

WATER DOWN MY

THROAT

SHUTTING OUT

THE SOUNDS OUTSIDE

WITH THE SOUNDS INSIDE

YET WITHIN THE

SILENCE

AND LIGHT REFRACTION

ON THE CEILING

FROM SOMETHING

THE LIGHT HITS JUST RIGHT

THERE IS NOTHING MORE

RELAXING THEN

TAKING IN THE SIMPLE

MOMENTS ALL AROUND

AND CHERISHING

THIS WITHIN MY

OWN SURROUNDED

CLUTTER OF ART STUFF

TO HOUSE STUFF

I KNOW THAT

LIFE IS GOOD

NO MATTER WHAT

HAPPENS

AS THE WHIFF OF MY

INCENSE COASTS ACROSS

MY NOSE FROM ACROSS

THE ROOM

EACH AND EVERY

SENSATION OF SENSE

IS ENHANCED BY

THE FOCUS TO EACH

AND IGNORING OF OTHERS

CALM AND SERENE

WITHIN THE

OUTSIDE CHAOS

OF CHILDREN PLAYING

SWEET AND FRAGRANT

AS THE PERFUME I AM

WEARING

TIME FLOWS SLOW

YET FAST AS IT ALWAYS

DOES

I KNOW I CAN STILL

SMILE

AND CONTENT

NO MATTER WHAT.
