Peace Defined

The pastels of the morning light
The stillness of the moon
The cool, damp moss on winter trees
The plaintive evening loon

The murmur of a forest stream
The vibrant autumn trees
The small waves lapping on the shore
The cooling summer breeze

The sweet green smell of new mown grass
The laughter of a child
The moonlight glinting on new snow
The garden, sun beguiled

The chimney's smoke with mist entwined
The rainy Sunday nap
The old dog curled up by the fire
The babe in grandma’s lap

The deer in silver, mist draped grass
The glistening dragon fly
The rainbow’s lively translucence
Against a clearing sky
