Prayer for when I need to find peace

Passionfruit Pavlova

A summer spritz, I like to wear.

Write a poem she said.

Artist. Monk. Mystic.

I dart around in my mind looking for the answer, out there.

Something to take my attention and yes! it is easy to find it.

That thing I must do, instead.

There’s a place though, Yes, I know it’s there and

the invitation draws me to it.

I've been there before, and I move quietly.

Gentle walking feet.

To the edge, the threshold, that space from here to there and yet

I am still here.

I’ll meet you there I know,

 I breathe.

I step into the depths within.

There is no fanfare.

There is coolness and calm.

Peace.

The knowing.

No words.

Be.
