Tranquility

“Tranquility binds the heart and soul
   for peace and calm that make us whole.” 
                                           __by Poet

The gift of sweet tranquility
   relies on doom's ability
to break the rhythm of true peace
   that chaos often shreds to cease.

In nature there are violent storms
   as a dark battle quickly forms
with clash of thunder, lightning steers
   to bring unrest with many fears.

But soon the clouds part to reveal
   the sun peeks out to break the seal,
return to calm and peacefulness-
   the prize we pray for to possess.

And so, in life, storms come our way,
   not so as clouds, but times that fray
that quiet peace within our soul
   to block our heart from feeling whole-

Must pray tranquility will come
   with rising of a new day's sun!
Unveil its calm and peaceful sight-
   after life's stormy, restless plight, 

Remaining true as our life's balm-
   that tranquil, peaceful, endless calm.
