Woe unto my nervousness!
Damned I am with all this stress!
But may my Mind be sweetly blessed
With Peace enough at last to rest

beneath a summer sunset
where serenity hovers
as my welcomed guest.

I don’t mean to sound selfish

But I often wonder if my name floats through your conversations

Like a ship on calm waters

Premium Member Belay To Becalm

Listen to poem:
give a little,
squeeze a little drop,
give up on,
the illusion of seclusion
belay to open up,
to be becalmed
to be becoming.

A tender touch resting upon a slender retouch.
A healing heart beneath a bleating bitterness.

A rainy day brings introspection.
It slows down time around us all.
A rainy day exudes calm.

All the wild critters run a race
But Nelly maintains a calm pace
So calm in her ways
Her actions display
No feathers ever ruffled out of place!

Pink coloured one-legged flamingo for hours
He pretends he's a rose

Premium Member A Calm Reflection of a Rejection

A calm reflection...of a rejection

Does seem a hard thing to do.

Yet introspection... before dejection

Brings more peace than you ever knew.
