Quietude


Unhurried summer evening brings a delicate peace

Weaving moments together and holding me in its crease

Chirping birds fill my ears with a dog's staccato bark

A myriad creatures in our midst imprinting an indelible mark

Flowers blooming brilliantly make me pause and breathe

Music wafts from nearby like the gently falling leaf

Summer breeze replenishes strength and joy within

Nudges me to linger to silence tomorrow's din
