Best Calmness Poems
Calm are the still leaves, waiting to fall
Water without ripples, reflections complete
The quiet air waits under the pines
Soft needles laying in place on the ground
On an empty path leading to solitude
To venture in trust without words
Beneath skies, changing color
To sip the fresh air with each slow breath
Heartbeats in unison with footsteps
Into the wide open meadow
Where not a blade of grass moves
Only the soul is stirred with inspiration
Sparked by the calmness within

Your Calm — a Silver Hemisphere —
Serenely — held in Hand —
Too Still — for Souls that traffic Noise —
They cannot — understand —
A Quiet — is a Provocation —
To Spirits — bred of Storm —
Your Stillness — is an Atmosphere
They cannot — take — by Form —
They rattle — at your Equinox —
They claw — at Gentle Air —
For Peace — to them — is Foreign Speech —
And Silence — lays them bare —
Yet keep — your Temper’s Lantern — lit —
Unflickering — and True —
For Chaos — melts — in Light like that —
Though Chaos — envies — You —
How unstoppable are the hands
of rsin spilling a basin of potpourri
into my territory, requesting
the nymph in my body for a sway
of pleasure: Will I spare this splendor
so pagan and pure that my riled energy
can smother the natural movement of this hour?
I saunter into woodland and allow
the language of calmness to just be.
clouds expand, rain drips
new blossoms of thrill unfurl...
autumnal drizzle

The crazy in me came out last week,
but I don't care???
Normally my house would be armed to the teeth,
waiting for some form of retribution,
normally i'd be bouncing off the walls with paranoia,
darting in and out the windows.
My mind thinks about it,
but i'm not fazed,
i'm calm,
my mind just won't fixate on it.
eerie calmness....
but I still wait for whats to come.
death comes to us all...
The heart is twisted
Like a dancer did
When one heard
A melody
Telling something important
Showing the heart interesting
In hearing a talent
Story
A bout deathless love
Giving and sacrifice
As the heart may advise
To share your love
In inner heart without fear
That is not enough
Giving a dream
In rosy
Your eyes are opening
They are not closing
Or even doing
As the lover near
By your side
Telling a proud
That is found
By meeting
By eye
There are no eyes
As many are tided
Room four eyes
Those are showing
Into one is observing
Into one I known
Heart and eye
Whose eye?
The two lovers saying
They are swearing
That belongs
Mine
They are true
The love must do
Tie them and go
In the race of life
The feeling is appeared
In lips when they say
When they smile in way
Of shiny
There may be some fault
Or saying wrong
But they return in fast
Saying in frank
Sorry
The mind know
The heart go
In green valley
To share the rosy
And dancing with fly
Around the world
Telling the talent
The love is important
If it is clear
Ending, no beginning
With holy tie
That is only
Marry
When one says
The angels go in ways
Spreading roses in away
To show the smart tie
And slow the time way
To give the love amusing
In tie
The morning will stay
The nights go away
The willing increases
The heart flame appears
Trying to get calmness
By sharing calm of heart
Another and say
That is my desire
That is my love
Who will give
The mean of life
For only
Long way
Stillness of Mind and Mouth
Josh in Little Rock, talking.
Micah in Oklahoma City, talking.
James in Lake Charles, talking.
Ailcia in Atlanta, talking.
Jennifer in NYC, talking.
Bonnie in Los Angeles, talking.
Li Wei in Shanghai, talking.
Christiane in Brussels, talking.
Owe ve, in quiet and stillness
answers are often found.
The word is most commonly used,
Mental agony and headaches with which it is diffused.
Starting from small kids to the old and aged,
Everyone complains of this as the root of unhappiness,
God knows eventually infants will possess this, I am afraid.
"Mom, too much of homework. I can't sit anymore!",
"Sit back to work and get top marks", she says with anger instead of adore.
"Taxes are increasing with huge rates of interest"
Workload and tensions, loans and apprehensions all on the crest.
I feel, how can one work with complete peace of mind,
When harmony, love and care are so difficult to grope and find.
No effects come on taking homeopathic remedies, I believe.
I think, anger, hatred for work and panick are components which need to be sieved.
Look out for role models like Bill Gates, Indira Nooyi and Mark Zuckerberg,
Passion for work and dedication do they possess,
Procrastination of work and short temper do they curb.
Now will you ask, "How do I ditch this tension of mine?",
Talk to people you trust, listen to some music and enjoy your work; eventually things will turn fine.
Dear fellow people, remember to be patient and to follow your passion,
I guarantee you will sew up your agony and tension.
Have faith in yourself- and before that, God.
Take intervals and there's no requirement to be angry and hot.
Don't get pushed by negative people around you,
Be effervesce and stop fights to brew.
Be happy and positive
Hold calmness and joy in your captive.
There is a place harbored solely by my heart.
It is peaceful, unhurried, free of every fear.
'Tis magnitudes more when you are near.
There is a calmness and serenity about you
that is all-seeing, penetrates my very being
and fixes me on what's worth achieving.
If I listen with mindful intent,
I can hear counsel whispered gentle.
It is direct, seasoned, and unsentimental.
Humbled, graced I am to host such a heart
with a place that pathfinds my course.
In humility I praise and thank the source.
Where can we find the calmness of our minds and souls
Our minds are always running wild
Images of dreams overlap and overlap
Until they are messy and entangled
Dream may or may not come true
If it comes true, it'll become a reality
It yields satisfaction
Followed by the calmness of the mind and soul
If it doesn't come true, it'll become an illusion
It yields disappointment
Followed by the restlessness of the mind and soul
Unknown and uncertainity
Fate and destiny, fear and worry
Greed and dissatisfaction
Guilt and inferiority
All will erode the calmness of our minds and souls
Maybe we will find calmness in love and confidence
True and justice
And of course not excluding a religion
As a chance to achieve
The calmness of our minds and souls
We can adopt a religion
And pray to the almighty god
Who is always a good listener
And a good comforter
Hello Sunshine, Good day World
May I but sip from the Chalice
Rain, a rose, Quiet repose
The Warm that is Linda Alice
written by Michael in 1975
(I found this handwritten poem in an old box of memorabilia. I submit it not as an ego post, but as a tribute to a mentor who is no longer with us. He encouraged and supported me in our work that was challenging and heartbreaking. It was offered me as a small respite from that work and to give me a smile. I did not change punctuation or capitalization. It had no title - I thought his name would be appropriate. I also thought it should be documented with smiles and fondest memories.)
Do not fear the war now.
Nor the battles we have won.
What matters most, we don't know?
The things that are yet to come.
Gloom may drag you down.
To where you cannot contain the pain.
But when courage is found.
Hope is a brilliant game.
It will never be suppressed.
No matter how far you descend.
Into a world of darkness.
The synergy of the mind has no end.
Today, stay calm and be strong.
When you have done no wrong
We sailed along the rhythmic crashing waves
Strong and brave, we have embraced destiny
Eyes on horizon, watched the sea behaves
Our composure traced on its melody
The wind has lashed and symphony started
We held our hands as waves cradled the night
The sky has showed the stars and we charted
Our journey finds another morning light
As boat swayed at the mercy of the wind
We sent devout prayers, faith, and submission
Where all chaotic path branched out unkind
With water fine spray, increased our vision
A beautiful infinite happiness
To carry us back to shore with calmness

I often reflect
On the motions of dawn ,night
Changing life’s vignettes
Yet keeping heart balanced
From life’s negative drama.

Syllables Of Wisdom
Contest of Silent One
In the calmness of an early morn
I can hear my breathing
I can hear my heart beating
In the calmness of an early morn
Laying beside you
Feeling the warmth from your body
Wanting to reach out and touch you
Without awakening you
In the calmness of an early morn
Our bodies touch
Our bodies writhes into rhythm
Our bodies become one
And enjoy the bliss
In the calmness of an earlyr morn

Sometimes one has to retreat
From the controversial world
To find an inner calm
To stay deep in the sea like a coral
Smiling all the way
Dancing softy
Listening to the soft flowing of the sea
Enjoying the calmness of the sea
Watching the wonderful muddling of schools of fish
A sudden emerge of a diver will bring
An admiration of the human being
From the outside world
And also a great pride and satisfaction
Within the coral
