Serenity

by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen — Read all 1,670 poems by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen

Sunday, August 1, 2004

The soft plit-plat of the gentle rain
gilds dusk’s cloudy skies
with the glow of contented day.

Low murmurs from neighbors,
dog’s raspy snoring, cricket chirruping,
all combine to create an aura.

Curving upwards to the great beyond,
the sense of peace, tomorrow, will collapse.
But, for now, serenity pervades.

Erin, as I find from all your writes of this type, serenity pervades my very being! You should hear the "gentle rain" on the roof of an RV, sounds like an attack from the sky...LOL! Peaceful serene write, Ed & rufuz

This left me with a truly deep, peaceful feeling. I love how you included the idea that tomorrow may not be peaceful; that thought allows us to appreciate these moments all the more. Great write.
