Stillness stirs from a silent simplicity
in one gentle sigh
a collection of quiet heartbeats
pulsate into a concerto
of harmony
measure of time
ceases
breath becomes bated
between moments
as sweet sensations
saturate essence
with song
bequeathing reasons to sing
forever~

“There is nothing holier in this life of ours than the first consciousness of love, the first fluttering of its silken wings.”
