Silence no chatter or cracks
Stillness serenity fill your tracks
Awakened in peace after long flight
Would you last one more night
Calm settles quieting fear
Anxiety suddenly disappeared
Long for solace without agitation
Rest peaceful with seasoned elation
You’ve been through it every year
What moved you getting you here
Stopped dissipating energy
Embraced letting go to be free
Fear the culprit stealing space
Filling mind with disgrace
What to say about churning
Teaches us about our burning
Trust that wisdom prevails
Dampening today’s travails
Courage step to the next rung
Faith provides a welcoming hug
How do you get to a place of quiet?
What do you do when access is challenging?
