Calm

There's a wonderful calm.
A breeze over my soul
My blood pressure confirms
A hole-free whole

There's a glorious peace
Rising from within
Not nirvana for sure
But the veil is super thin

Storms will come
Yet surely fade
Hope remains constantly
Created not made

It's a bit like the colour
Was washed away
Then returned briefLy 
In a rainbow one day

Change is the only constant, true. It pays to recognise and celebrate those moments (and people) who colour our lives :)

This is a wonderful, well written poem Sam. Very tranquil. I particularly love the third stanza and the last one.,’ Then returned briefly in a rainbow one day’.Just lovely! Really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing. Blessings and smiles :):)

Peace and glimpse of hope flowing throughout your well crafted lines, so much depth in this profound write. I especially love the rhymes and the way you’ve written “ storms will come yet surely will fade” i agree. This poem gives me hope! Thank you! Loved it

Oh wow, this is such a beautiful and heartfelt write. I can definitely feel the emotions hued in this brilliant poem, a sense of serenity that has just begun to coruscate as a nascent glimmer of hope.. Not fully eliminating the storms but giving us the strength to surf and sail.. I really love the line "It's a bit like the colour was washed away, then returned briefly in a rainbow one day" Yes, the faith and belief must live on! Needed to read this today, so gorgeous :)
