Hushed Time

do you know
the hushed time
it is when
you are relaxed
and all is calm
even your pores
feel comfortable
it is like the hour
before you fall asleep
or maybe the hour
before you wake
nothing is pulling at you
no questions
no answers
just is
when you blend into
all around you
you a part of them
them a part of you
all one
breathing again
becomes involuntary
a heart beats
at its own pace
where life welcomes you
back into its arms
and once again you feel
at home in your own skin
do you know it
have you found it
the hushed time


"Pour yourself thick, when it is you, that you spread."

Wow, the hushed time sounds like a very special place to be.
This is sooo soft almost a lullaby.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Helen,
And then I thought of you. Okay...that wasn't the idea. Yup I do know that time. Just not very often. Good job.
