Peace and quiet

stop
breathe
be still and calm
let the sounds of the world carry on
without you
they will not stop, you cannot silence them
so just let them be
stop
breathe
be here and now
let the thoughts in your head
wander out of your consciousness
they will not go far, so you need not follow
stop
breathe
for you are alive
listen to the silence within
and hear
the sound
of peace


Today I am grateful for remembering that to find a bit of peace, I have to find a bit of quiet...inside as well as out.

Gratefully yours.
