Serenity’s path is a slow stroll
brimming with nature’s pace
of ‘got all day’ lessons.
Cycles nobody can rush.
Cuz trees got forever to thrive.
So,
become a leaf emerging,
tender,
pliant,
opening in response to a sun 93 million miles away.
Light will find you.
Take your time.
Flower then fruit.
You are anticipated sweetness,
ripening calm from seeds
that dreamed dreams no one questioned.
Environments such as these create worlds
with galaxies to play in after slumber.
Rising curiosity and exploration
breach continuously dividing cells
filling arrival halls of majesty
with not a conductor in sight.
Atmosphere rich,
germinating grandeur.
Spilling over sides
and seeping in soil that chuckles
at the chance to yield the miraculous again and again.
This journey always widens.
Panorama of life further than any eye can see.
Justification for leisure.
To lay spreadeagled in summer fields,
the safest restraint earth can offer,
listening as daisy petals open each morning
to thunderous applause of innumerable blades of grass.
You have found one path to bliss.
Now,
find them all.
