In the stillness of my thoughts, I find the joy of singing to the silence and speaking life into my soul’s shining Son – quote by poet A hush of breathless moans Color my mind in hues of imagination Filling the night with expressions Of light and passion and grace Endless songs of hope and praise Praying on the wings of thanks A whisper of encouraging words Lifting the load on heart and soul Gifting my mind with focus – goals Knowing the joy of inspirational healing Pouring down from the heights of love Soothing and gentle, feelings so pure They echo the calm of rivers and seas Blessings we sometimes fail to appreciate A quiet so genuine it liquifies the darkness With a gasp of fresh, clean air filled with Listening friends, the leaves and elms The winding vines of delicately woven climbers Who tease the light from the sunrise And caress silhouettes of branches and limbs Scattered across the lawn – figures dancing Waltzing to the noiseless thoughts of those Who know His will has saved us from harm A peace overflowing the sounds of life Overcompensating for this dreaded fear This darkness that dresses in black ash Without the fire to express her message For those who long to discover exhilaration On the stardust moments composed of rich Charming poetry written on seas of dreams And blended with the beauty from hearts Who find their delight on the stillness sought By artists and writers and preachers Those who have mastered the art of solitude And long to feel their voices fading Into the tranquility of a soundless faith ''S'' Contest, New Poems Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Constance La France Theme chosen: Stillness October 30, 2021
