In Search of Peace

The seats are all patiently awaiting
the next congress of eager onlookers
as the lights have shown the pathways to home
and now only shine for serenity

The lonely moon bows its chest in full crest
brushing the image of pregnant trees
onto the placid canvas of water
letting our minds know it is time to dream

fresh clairvoyants

stale charged air
and nature the sole provider
that saves the savage breast
soothed by imagery and
quiet respite

and the multitudes take too
their chairs..

thank U!
