Collected thoughts drift in recollections, emotions that are my psyche and soul; innermost spiritual collections. Down the path of my life I take a stroll, contemplating surviving each sinkhole, in peace- I find a winged oriole. In the quiet of nature I rest- pause, seeking relief and spiritual calm; nature wraps me in a protective gauze. the solitude is like a secret balm, in my rest I recall a favoured psalm, with revived strength I will erase each qualm. In awareness- I am fully awake, mindful, enlightened, perceptive and wise; my gathered conscious I will not forsake. I have the knowledge to detect a guise, have an unfathomable sense for lies, ego moral growth will bring forth this prize. With internal repose I am well ground, and with thoughts and awareness surrounded. ________________________ December 08, 2022 Poetry/Urban Sonnet/Within My Psyche Copyright Protected, ID 12-1507-379-08 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written in Urban Sonnet created by Laura Loo, PS member.

For sheer poetic skills this right on top of the charts! From my perspective, the first and last line signals dependence on thought, whereas we’re looking at thought rested awareness as the line of inquiry. A delightful and heart felt poem, Constance, honest, sincere and soulful. Warmest congratulations on your win.

Hi Connie, I love the pic. It looks like a little wood nymph. I think it's a lovely write just the way it is and liked the reference to sink holes. Merry Christmas and hope you are doing well.
