the calmest watersare shallow lakes, unableto kick up a fuss
you can hear the wind amid the modern chaos telling you, “be calm”
on a flat surface everything sits calmly and nothing happens
needed by the soul silence can be hard to find until you seek it
in the calm surface we see our world reflected and not the surface
to find a calm place and recognize its value is underrated
there is a quiet that only accompanies the fresh fallen snow
all too often we focus on the turbulence rather than the calm
in a culture that glorifies action, it’s hard to quietly wait
it just takes a breeze to stir up the lake’s surface and disrupt the calm
