Tranquillity - A Tapestry Poem

Where has my peace of mind flown?
Come home my gentle dove
bring with you gifts of tranquillity
to ease my troubled soul
a song of light to brighten my world
a gentleness to re-open my eyes
to the beauty of the rainbow
and the abundance of joy
God has showered on mankind
from the beginning of time
                                                  – Avril
 
… the relaxing easy-chair of the mind
in which one can feel the depths of truth
and stay rooted in the here and now

Where does one find it? In gardening?
In the creative arts? The liberating soils in which
grief and rancour, pain and sorrow are processed
 
and become fertiliser pushing out soothing buds
of serenity… grow flowers, write poetry,
make music… loosen edgy strings of the spirit
                                                   – Shernaz
 
Tapestry - Avril & Shernaz
 
Where has peace — the relaxing easy-chair
of the mind — flown?
Come home my gentle dove
loosen the edgy strings of MY spirit
ease my troubled soul
 
The Creator has showered mankind
with liberating soils in which grief and rancour,
pain and sorrow are processed – gifts of tranquillity
in which one can feel the depths of truth.
 
Oh. to gently re-open my eyes
to the beauty of the rainbow
stay rooted in the here and now
push out soothing buds of serenity
feel an abundance of joy.
 
Where to find, this song of light
to brighten my world?
In gardening … in the creative arts:
grow flowers, write poetry, make music.
