Constance La France's Write Fifteen Beautiful Lines Contest

submitted 6 May 25

'it is only through the stillness of meditation that one

can truly access the higher self '...by poet

I quest for stars...for calm repose Lingering far from darkened sea beyond weaves of tranquility. Noises from my barbed mind grow dim As I reach this quiet of trance Engaged in one mystical dance. Through solitude...fear vanishes This thorn released in quiet time When minutes drift from pause sublime. And tracing imprints…sand from heel Gentle the lift , from nowhere came Where healing breathes…as I the same. Till moonglow touches my skin bare, A flow, a sigh...I turn to greet Lightness of soul, my day complete. First Place
