"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."
- Philippians 4:6-7

A Sam Scott poem:
22nd September 2023
---------

Listen to poem:
There is a peaceful sound That comes from a deep place within When the high desert winds Blow and ruffle and sting Stilling the soul becomes an artform The painting of azure blue On the hot canvas of trauma Sealing it's cooling aura in-situ Centre down, take control Close out the world acting so scarily Remember the deep well of truth Draw up the fresh water momentarily Drink deep of the calm crystal clear To feel the lying hurricane of fear Lose it's false power Become free and your true self again

I love your wordplay here, so well written and spoken. Seamless alliterations and as i read this i can also here the crashing of waves: this poem has a philosophical depth and conveys such intriguing thoughts, especially love “ remember the deep well of truth.. fresh water momentarily “ so deep and profound! And true! Truth is alwys prevail. And draw out the noises. Loved reading this

Again you bless me with your attention and praise. I did enjoy crafting this one, I guess I am more invested in truth than deception. Separating the two is sometimes hard when life is grey. Love is a great revealer of truth. Bless you for your own brand of Inky kindness and generosity :) My heart is full.

Peace in quiet meditation, trying to filter out the din of chaos and strife, even if for just a moment. Here's wishing you many such moments
