Moments of Still

In the evening quiet
birds break out in song
while the babbling brook
tells a tale of yesterday
as it flows along,
distracted only by
the occasional ripple
of a leaf landing
upon mirrored waters,
drifting into a journey
that has just begun.

Set of Eve
dresses in colors
of melancholy
in reflection upon
the waters of life.
In this sanctuary
of serene tranquil
I am surrounded
by peacefulness
allaying my spirit
in moments of still.

in a white wall
somebodies brush
forgot to paint...

my heart and soul have not been into writing as of lately, but a quiet night along the creek banks allowed my muse to breeze by for a few moments....
but she didn't stick around long.....
Thanks for stopping in Nancy.

(smiles) Oh my gosh, I love this, sweet friend, I'm sorry your muse is currently not flowing that much, but I know like always you will always think of such gorgeous poems in time that you always make me smile over like this one! (kiss on cheek) May you always find delight by the creekbed with the birds and spring, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Donna, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
