The Hush

The hill and vale beneath are lush with greenery. I feel a flush of joy to ride the sky, I’m rising higher; now a hush surrounds me. Suddenly, a rush of snow-white geese pass by! My big balloon is taking me into the clouds inside this sea of blue; I lift and lift above the clouds. . . Serenity enwraps my soul. Eternally I long to quietly drift. By Andrea Dietrich For nette onclaud's RUMI IN RIME COUEE Poetry Contest Inspired by: Observe the wonders as they occur around you. Don't claim them. Feel the artistry moving through and be silent. -RUMI

Andrea I read a comment of yours, and each time I write something or you do, I realise just how alike we are, who would have thought a vampire, ghost and werewolf would have made a good story, it was one of my favourite shows, it finished here late last year, do you want to know the ending?? he he he he...........
