Still Stay still, and feel the completeness of it all, feel the silky breeze breathe across your body and the tingling sun’s rays kiss your flesh stay still, and feel the completeness of it all, feel the sand move silently beneath your bare feet, hear the bluebells soft whisper in the wind hold the sands within your hand, feeling the crystalline edge stay still, and feel the completeness of it all, smell the scent of summer again. Stay still, and feel the completeness of it all, close your eyes as into the cool lapping water you walk, silently, no sound of a body’s talk feel small minnows drifting, wiggling past your legs lean back and float with eyes upraised stay still, and feel the completeness of it all. Gaze now upon the azure of the sky and billowing cumulus clouds on high this moment, so now, so totally complete because you are still, and can feel the completeness of it all. ©KRJ 29 August, 1999 ------------------ Sunshine Words will always express our feelings true. ~~~ KRJ Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

This reminds me of a saying I once heard: "Silence is the most powerful sound of all." You give good advice here ... it shows that you have an appreciation for the subtle rhythms that thread through us all ... I enjoyed the read. Thank you. ------------------ "Nunc lento sonitu dicunt, morierus" (Now as I hear this bell tolling softly for another, it says to me, "Thou must die.") |

your poem brought such peace to me...wishing i could go back to my childhood and enjoy the lazy days of summer, instead of the rush of the working class. |
