Centred for M lady Helen W.

experimental form

 

 

Centred

 

The silence of the night profound.

Unbroken by the slightest sound.

Envelopes me.

 

Serenity envelopes me

From earthly worries I am free

Just for a while.

 

I can enjoy just for a while

 a complete change from my life style.

No need to rush.

 

I am content no need to rush.

Sit quietly amidst the hush.

I still my mind.

 

Effortlessly I still my mind

and meditate until I find

 my inner core.

 

When I have reached my inner core

 I need not struggle any more.

I am at peace.

 

I realise I am at peace

 when all my errant thought trains cease.

I can just be.

 

I understand I can just be

 if only temporarily.

Then I must go.

 

An hour or two then I must go

 back to the noisy world I know.

Reluctantly.

 

Surrendering reluctantly

 the only time that I am free

 to be just me.

Really creates a lovely, tranquil atmosphere. I got lost reading it, didn't realize when it ended. A break from the "noisy world" indeed. Great work :)
