Peace




DAY 8


Peace is the Pause

     Between   the    in-breath

                           And   the   out-breath

                            The out

          And the in

Musings

I need a bit of a break today, hence this piece about peace. 

But it was also important to give it shape, to take it beyond the written word into the sense. 

I believe sensing is the canvas behind the word. The blank slate, if you like that, from which all else springs. 

What I tried to show was my writing as a wave of inspiration following it's own natural ebb and flow.

  3. Thank you for this. It was just what I needed today.

    Here is my piece.


    Torn between tasks to be done
    And my desire to listen to the music,
    I realise I am neither here nor there.
    I sit
    and listen ……

    1. Daphne, you have the ability to be so succinct where I sometimes stumble....and of course that's when I strive for perfection!!! Then my words ramble on and on and on. In my turn your piece is exactly what I need to hear as wellx
