Notes About The Poem

Whispering Calm

Time stands still 
     in a tranquil spring afternoon 
                how invigorating 
            to be in the thick of it;

                     far removed 
 from the roaring hustle and bustle.
 I'm imbibing moments so peaceful.
                   The ambience...

           couldn't be more serene.
         A roaring wind now calm, 
    as if asleep. The birds are quiet;
                  all flying mute...

   under the canopy of the heavens.
The faint whispers of rustling foliage,
                       so relaxing. 
             What a wondrous day!
