Peaceful Moments

Boiling gray clouds upon the horizon
Moisture dripping from lazy oak trees
Fog rising in the valley, rose clouds surprise and
A golden sun peeks through pines with ease

The dove upon the hill sings a sweet refrain
A gentle breeze covers me with damp
His presence and peace reach my spirit again
A few minutes upon the porch to praise and proclaim

Life so unpredictable but here seems same
Never know the hour or second of future change
The sun has reached above the trees aflame
Manmade sounds quieted, the doves coo in range

The solitude and peaceful moments so brief
Relived only deep within my spirit when seeking relief
