Contentment

more of a thought, a picture, a moment of peace

Contentment

She sat on the porch step, staring into the darkness. Solitude surrounded her in its silken embrace.  She pulled her knees to her chin and watched as the moon’s gentle light played upon the mirror-like surface of the lake.  She drew in a deep breath of crisp night air and released it, slowly.  A cloud of white mist filled the space before her face.  In that moment, she made peace with the world and herself.

 

 

 

Author's Note

really more of an image than a poem-as always any feedback is greatly appreciated

The ones has that count to ten mood... relax... inhale... exhale.... the world is still spinning and you're still here to enjoy the comforts of life... those times when time alone does wonders for the soul... and keep things at a balance...

This is a gorgeous image! With a little rearrangement, this would make a lovely prose poem. As is, it is still a beautiful picture to put in my head tonight... :)
