Notes About The Poem
It is hard to sit and just be silent that is let the mind rest..Sara

Gentility

Observe the wonders as they occur around you. Don't claim them. Feel the artistry moving through and be silent.  Rumi

Fog came in its gentility Sun in predictability Cast its radiant light The sun's sustainability Touched damp fog's great fragility With its powerful might

This is a beautiful write, simply beautiful write my friend! I love all the references to the sun and fog, in a way fine contrasting elements of nature! My favorite line has to be, "Touched damp fog's great fragility" where it shows the mortality of this fogs life span for that morning(if it is morning)! I really enjoyed this poem that I have read this evening! I love this write immensely! Excellent Work!!
