PEACE OF MIND
Poem written for “Peace of Mind” Poetry Contest, Kai Michael Neumann, sponsor, July 26, 2025. Here’s my piece of mind on what constitutes peace of mind:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Serenity holds the soul in its arms,
a delicate hug of quiet grace.
Contentment
Unmasked and genuine in mirror’s gaze
no need for pretense.
Confidence
Accepting the stillness
heart filled with silent strength.
Tranquility
Bridging the gaps,
fostering goodwill.
Compassion
Steadfast in the face of adversity
navigating life with grace.
Balanced
A river of trust
bridges constructed with tender hands.
Harmony
Advancing
rather than merely surviving.
Thriving
Embracing my own skin
every breath a gentle reminder.
Being enough
Wrapping myself in the richness of now
every moment a gift.
Gratitude
Taking in the ordinary
while strolling through the day.
Unhurried
Hearts heal in silence
past wrongs dissolve.
Forgiveness
Core stays steadfast
rooted in fertile soil.
Resilence
Remorse and guilt slowly disappear,
softly fading like autumn’s leaves.
Letting go
A feather on my shoulder
the weight of the world.
Placidity
Walking in His light
silent comfort.
Faith
