Listening

Listening
to the
stillness grow,
thunder distant
rumbles low,
raindrops fall
from heavy skies,
wiping sleep
from mornings eyes,
a passing burst
as sun breaks through,
a freshness filled
with life anew.

Nice piece John. Listening to the stillness grow, beautiful. A good flow, snappy, refreshing written like it was meant to be.

[Coyote Poetry]

I enjoyed the poem. The short statements led the reader to the simple sounds, leading to renewal. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry
