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...

A fading sunset warmly glows
On woodland touched by Autumn’s clay
And trickling down, a soft rainfall
Beneath a copper frame of sky. 
My humming senses grasp the winds
Like keepers in a serenade,
To taste a calmness that renews 
Ripe budding of  soul’s gentle drift

Mellow the sound passing...

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,

I often reflect

On the motions of dawn ,night

Changing life’s vignettes

Yet keeping heart balanced

From life’s negative drama.

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...

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...

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...

Hello Sunshine, Good day World
May I but sip from the Chalice
Rain, a rose, Quiet repose
The Warm that is Linda Alice

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

Constrain the clatter within the soul's quiescent call
Rip the sun out of the day into night time's placid fall
To bear the bliss of calmness and peace to all

Oust the din of baneful chaos born
It strikes too deep in our marrow's reconciliation
Unprotected as a petaled rose...

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...
