Stillness Found

When a Poem begins with one thread, a word or a thought that works it’s way into a completed package that goes beyond that of a dream to become what it now appears. This is why I love composing and working on Poetry to this extent.

Introduction Thoughts:

In the restless hours, when thought threads tighten and turn, stillness waits beyond the noise, quiet, kind, and knowing. There, in the hush of rivers and the warmth of wandering light, the heart learns to listen again. (What we view nature as, remains what each person sees.) Nature, patient and eternal, whispers not to be heard but to be felt, teaching us, that peace is not the absence of thought, but the calm beyond it.

Stillness Found




Thoughts twist and tinker through my head at night,
As answers ever waken old-stilled fright.
Till stillness stirs beyond their fragile dreams,
Where founded fears still fight to forge their schemes.



Calm, caught caressing, finds my mind in kind,
Far beyond brightened stars the world’s confined.
Their fleeting fates and dramas drift and close,
While whispers wind through willows in repose.



I find fine feathers floating rivers deep,
Where softened soil lies still to guard and keep.
Here wander I, while nature’s breath caresses,
Freed from the weight of all the world’s distresses.



So find me where no storm disturbs the streams,
Nor startles fawns from golden sunlit dreams.
Find me where castles built on sand are gone,
For love lives here, where none may rule upon.



For nature’s native note renews my care,
As streams carve songs through fields once worn and bare.
And though the world may fade from faithless air,
No sound compares to her soft silence there.

ENDING THOUGHTS:

Thank you for following me on my little journey, that is composing or writing poetry. If Life is a journey which we all walk on and my journey in creating Poetry is a journey of it’s own. Which I still learn much on as I write.

At times I experiment on methods or way how I can improve my poetry, therefore getting feed back is always most welcome for such as these.

When I write poetry, some readers may be offended with something within the poetry. I do not write to offend, But such are written for reasons I outline in the posts. Often I miss typos and mistakes when publishing each poem. I correct the moment I discover such mistakes.
