Search for Stillness
I want to remain completely still.
You may find me suspended in the sky
with the birds and clouds dancing around me;
perhaps in the Pacific
lying within the great currents
feeling the water flow above and below me.
Maybe I’ll stand in a field on a sunny day
my arms outstretched as a sundial
shadows following time’s passage.
If I am completely still,
what knowledge will come to me?
What peace?

Pam,
Your poem is lovely. Thanks for reading my poem last week.
Have you seen the web site Bolts of Silk? Seems like your writing would go well there.
I haven’t visited that site but I will. Thanks for the comments.
