Nature has that way to make us find ourselves in the quiet…

Nature has that way

to make us find ourselves in the quiet…

Forgetting ourselves

and being in its presence…

Brother Wind

breezes through our thoughts…

Father Night

blanketing us with serenity…

Sister Stars

illuminating our hope…

Sister Moon

softening the dark…

the quiet of the night

the quiet of the night

has come upon me

as I sit here in the silence

and listen to the absence

my heart tiptoes

across the syllables of mist

deep within the recesses of my heart

wondering where you are

when will I find you

what is this longing

I feel within

what is it that keeps me searching

why have you eluded me

I find YOU

in the children’s smiles

I find YOU in my friends

I find YOU in the SUN

I find YOU in the MOON

I find YOU in the Stars

yet…I am restless still…

and

still…

I seek you…
