Finding Peace

Kneeling 

as the curtains of time
slipped to drift 
in the river of days, 
my eyes sighed tears 
and my heart 
cupped to capture 
its communion

praying 

as the folds of hours 
enveloped and draped 
to pool, over hands 
in humilities hold, 
as each whisper 
travelled mere moments 
to awaken a Star

unknowingly

my words 
had filigreed to glimmer 
in milli seconds of wonder, 
and the Sapphire dome 
now shimmers to mirror 
a future enthralled 

at peace
