Tranquility

 


Accepting uncertainty
Beyond our control
Because another human
Because another soul

Lifting the veil
To see the unseen
It takes decades of time
To share the unclean

The intense letting go
Loosening the firm grasp
Of what we hold tightly
Of what we must clasp

Releasing the hold
Comes with a gift
Of accepting the person
As they move and shift

The moment it comes
When tranquility arises
As you rest in the arms
Of life's pleasurable surprises

A soft place to land
Like a warm comfy bed
Embraces your curves
Relieves you of dread

Hope shatters fear
Anxiety will cease
Bringing life to your bones
To your soul it brings peace
