Dance to the Stillness

 






Should troublesome times beset upon thee

Stealing halcyon days from diary

Then is when one must swallow all fury

And wait for a heartbeat to be jury


To the paradox that is the stillness

Of movements in the deep dance of darkness

Where turmoil churns loudly the emotions

And quietude of the deepest oceans.


With every breath there is silent pause

A musical note; a poem’s silent cause.

Stillness implies chaos and abides life

As floating in peace or beset in strife.


    Tranquility is a war of the heart

    and mind; only stillness may choose the part.
