The solace
The silence
the stillness
all appetites
appeased
the mind
at rest
neither to
nor fro
a soft focus
on the moment
free from
blind ambition
or sad
remembrance
of what might
have been
Call it
equilibrium
balance
the non-medicated
soul that stirs
only to savour
the peace
it holds within
words are a comfort
but between them
comes the solace
of silence
John Lyons
