when corners
are rounded
sharpness
of edge are honedthe prickly of vitriol is mitigated
anger and hate, atoned
contentment
in a life of extremes
is the
soft breeze in the dawnthe glitter of but a few stars
winking behind the cloud covered sky
solitude
provides room and space
to the
charm of nature’s heraldryand the songs of the ocean wave
while in it's wake the osprey play
in quiet
and calm, a spring of knowledge come
this
fruit is gathered in wisdom’s abodeand all other distractions no longer matter
for there’s love of peace and the peace of love
