walking slow
through crowds
unrelenting scatting voices
crossing peace gardens
hush hush
why must it be explained
gravel walkway
gaits of many crunch arrhythmic beat
insert noise here
before a tranquil lily pond
placate this uneasy heart
oh white mulberry
humble leafy shelter for me and
this still trani meditation stone🪶
thoughts get lost in a lost overfull suitcase
keys in a pocket get lost separately
treasures of memories sewn deep
in silver lining soaking now in a dark salty sea
maybe the seal will have to succumb
all your collectable colours be displayed
dolphins and whales and sea urchin
explorers will all take a part of you away
give no quarter to thoughts of rescue
gone is gone for ever in the drink
what was once becomes eventually
withered remains or a part of an unexpected
imagined or hopeful and though unseen
something shining brilliant and new🪶
In the place of tall trees
I go walking
Bird song rises
Human sounds fade
One or two dog wanderers quiet smiling
Calm passages
Light flicks between flutter leaves
There’s a chair been delivered by someone
maybe needing a place sometimes to go
maybe needing away from their chaotic all
Maybe they close their eyes here and listen
simmer runaway minds and just hum
The world is abundant
All is possible
There’s joy of life and there’s beauty
There’s danger threat and fear
The world can feel so heavy
Humanity’s suffering is everywhere plenty
Some of us find less Lonesome in here🪶
