The Glimpse

I sit and stare
The hair, the eyes….. that face!
But why?
Is there a reason?
Can there be any hope?
I touch….. I try to feel
But it's not the same,
I don't know why.
Calm assurance gently flows;
Peace…..peace……and even more.
Head says one thing, heart another.
Questions unanswered but calmness stills the night
Peace, tranquillity, serenity……..
Yes…………true rest!
