Notes About The Poem

the following poem from online poetry class assignment: ("Write a Rubai Poem based upon this image)

QUIET HOUR

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The quiet hour leans close, inviting me to see how even shadows hold a kind of clarity. A single breath can open the whole world wide~ and grace returns, unbidden, endlessly.
