Inner-Feeling of Peace

How do I describe my thoughts

- this inner feeling of peace?

 

How do I thoroughly grasp this feeling

 - describe the wonder it is giving me?

 

It is so quiet: the world outside.

There is someone there.

Something in the trees and in the grass.

A feeling like the breeze: gentle, calm and perceptive.

 

If you listen closely you can hear its voice

- a soft, gentle whisper, like the silent drift

of spring blossoms.

 

This, I know, is what I seek. This hidden calm,

this feeling - this strange peace.

I've heard that voice before, too, and it does instill peace. In fact, it is sometimes the only voice capable of doing so. A lovely, serene poem, Matt.
