The Quietude

In the primeval forest
of my being,
the Stones 
ceased speaking
and the Trees 
all fell silent.

And in that living,
breathing Quietude,

I saw
a lone tree frog
resting in the heart 
of its own 
blessed Stillness.

Dear whispering bird,
this is truly inspiring!
My heart opened.
Your words created the deep silence in me that you are writing about - masterful. The silence that is needed to experience my innermost self.
Love to hear (and see) more of you.
With love and blessings,
Claritta
