Bob Blackwell - ! ! Hush Moments

I hear the birds sing,
I feel the gentle wind
blow through trees
whose branches creek,
leaves fall softly down.

No footsteps on path,
far away the traffic roar,
curled up asleep my cat,
I catch quiet moments;
a sigh of silence reigns.

Gentle wind now ebbs,
stillness rules my land.
Untroubled, undisturbed,
composed and calm, a
peace that’s settled down.

I reflect how in moments
such as this, all time stops,
no finger moves, no cogs
turn, whats past is gone,
no longing for is present.

Yet natures beauty stays,
flourish of beauty lights
partly cloudy winters scene;
bed of smiling pansy faces,
host of features all unique,
still warm my heart with joy.
