Peace Be Still

shh
peace be still
that’s what I found today
in my lunchbox
peace be still
a note scratched to toweling
intended to wipe a chin
instead
soothes a soul
mine
that someone knows me
well enough
cares about me
deep enough
to console
to lift up
to bring a bit of hope
to a day in which my heart is heavy
in which sorrow could reign
shh
peace be still

Peace doesn't mean to have no turmoil in your life. Peace means to be among all the turmoil and still have peace in your heart. (I have a "short story" by this same title.) I loved this write and the serenity within that it implies/implores...

Tender piece lass! I for one am quite taken with the simplicity wrapped in eloquent power....prancing in laced loveliness, keep up the good work! You are a gentle soul indeed.....

There is nothing quite like silence. I like the thought process in this. Very cleansing words to read.

Thanks,
