One of mine

Wisdom


And all the while,
as I am becoming
more frustrated
more irritated
more desperate
to grab inner peace and force it to live in me for longer than five minutes once a week,
all this while…

…outside…

…the birds sing
the breeze sets leaves to dance
and a robin,
perked
high and proud
cocks his head
‘how curious!’
he observes
and returns to the real world
