gently the day rises
in silent solitude
stillness grips the morning
a deafened peace
caresses my soul

profound in its grip
that even a whisper
would be a shout
that would rock my core,
titillate my nerves

yet, no whisper comes
not one disturbance,
retreat holds me
stroking my sinew
with tranquility

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
