A Quiet

The sky is blue and clear today, the air is warm, crisp I can smell the morning light burning off the waters Feel its glimmering dance in those waves Over my skin, my face aglow under tears long dried The morning doves are out lamenting happy songs of life I can hear their warmth of lightness washing through the air Feel their words cascading across my shoulders like rain Over my body, my hair swaying unkempt in the breeze The sun gleams through the trees now, in the quiet, in the still I can see its breath filtered through the leaves Feel the rings of light wafting along and through my path Over my bare feet, my hands empty now as if they always were The leaves are vibrant, bright this morning, alive and cool I can taste their sweet life growing inside their breath in my grasp Feel their sense of tomorrow beating in their gasping sighs Over my face across these tears dried inside my eyes
