Peace






It is quiet here.
Peace wraps around my heart.

 
Hemmed in finest lace, the field is dressed in green and pink. 


There, a fairy ring of joe-pye weed
is guarded by a weathered fence post... 
 
 
If I stand very still, and listen, 
I can hear a bird calling,


and the hypnotic drone of bees at work.


Wind shushes softly 
through the Queen Anne's lace and iron weed.



 I peer inside a secret world
that smells like sunlight...


I hold this peace inside my heart
so I can always find it.
