           Serenity

Dissolve past and future
in  the quintessence of this
   moment.
Roll up the moon
in your window blind.
Open the door, look up,
and let the stars come in.
Allow mind and spirit to
settle into perfect stillness.
Listen to the voices of Nature
   and of Love
Become the wilderness,
and Serenity will arrive …
in her own fine time!

Very nice Bruce!

I love this line:

"Roll up the moon
in your window blind"
I enjoyed it very much! ~L

Elusive serenity but at night under the sky is where I find her most often. Enjoyed reading this.
Thanks
