one finger pressed to lips of universal inner peace

By KittyStryker

hush

listen to silence
the hum of life
steady pulse
breath of the earth

close your eyes
and see beauty
in the depth
in
the
nothing

this void
is to be perused
at your leisure-

take your time

no rush

no minute hand
within
the self

hush

and listen
to the wind
whisper slow
of dreams
you never had
and always
knew
