(untitled) As the morning mists lifted from the mountains, And the flowering plants pervaded the cool air (the scents of you and them mingled to intoxicate me) I knew my epiphany, more so as I continued to climb. And as you slept, I contemplated the mountain Was lucid, but a moment, only to return to that waking dream... I dared challenge my own heart, as I trudged farther along the steep path And I knew peace Even if only a glimpse, A flash, but a moment, a memory still... I knew peace ******************************* Hadn't the sun awakened you? Hadnt' you noticed it gently part the clouds and warm away the rain? As the gentle sounds of the water dissipated, the forests came back to life, Hadn't you noticed? ******************************* And, as I wandered (wondered) Found my own stillness here, only to hold it for myself. But, as I awakened from that stillness, I noticed I'd unwittingly given it to you! |
