Notes About The Poem

For Constance's Contest : Tranquility . A  Swap Quatrain  4/10/26.

Tranquility

"Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence." Desiderata

"Serendipity brings fourth knowledge that is hidden until one is confident to flaunt it." The Poet

Serenity transcends with a warm tranquil overtone.
Meditating peacefully, I choose to repose, quite alone.
Soft bliss as the song of the lark and nightingale blends
with a warm tranquil overtone, as serenity transcends.

The gentle scent of roses wafting skyward bound.
A soft carpet of lilac petals softly fall to the ground.
Lilting music of forest sounds that nature composes.
Wafting skyward bound, the gentle scent of roses. 

Soothing of the rippling brook, creating calm sensation.
Majestic quietness with placid thoughts brings relaxation.
This utopia with silent stillness becomes a perfect nook.
Creating calm sensation, the soothing of the rippling brook.

Wisdom transforms composure to an unseen knowing.
Through an undisturbed  tranquility the stream is flowing.
With harmonious restful tranquility, sagacity lends disclosure.
To an unseen knowing, wisdom transforms composure.
