Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Beneath the Calm

in the far distance
serenity on the surface
his strength precarious
he harbors within more
questions than answers
as he ponders the intricacies
of his balancing act
of the silence deep within
of the roar of this silence
he can no longer subdue
