Tranquility
Insanity,
Instability,
a touch of vertigo.
Trees rustling, clouds flying,
a night so dark no stars can shine.
Feet planted on earth so solid,
anchored down a weight so heavy.
Darkness settles as a cricket chirps-
Silence shattered, winds howling, all quiet lost,
swept away in a moment so great.
Clarity,
Epiphany,
a touch of stability.
A moon so bright peeking through the clouds,
thin shafts of light illuminate the darkness.
a shaking of shoulders, a release of burden.
turmoil ceases it's muted roar,
tranquility and peace eclipses this night.
footsteps light on the path to follow,
surety in step for the moment has passed.
