Poem: Serenity


Serenity

Serenity.
It comes
not
in the seeking;
not in the chasing,
but in the stillness
within,

a willingness
to release,
to empty,
to make room
within,

to open yourself
to the peace
that is not yours to take,
but God's
to give.

wow...Tom, the picture matched with the poem. My learning in life is "release" and "empty". Thanks for sharing your beautiful deep soft voice as well the poem,

Best wishes,
