Life

Sometimes, you're lucky enough to find perfect peace in an instant of time

My life is perfect.

Right this very second.

The TV stands, neglected against the wall,

mourning silently in black.

Calm and peaceful.

The scent of Myrrh fills each room,

a presence of older wisdom.

Creative and inspiring.

Eyes closed, the hum of the computer tower

is somehow meditative.

I want to hold this second

in my heart forever,

so when things go wrong,

I can take it out

and see how it should be.

How I want it to be.

This very second.

I love these lines:

'The TV stands, neglected against the wall,

mourning silently in black.

Calm and peaceful.

The scent of Myrrh fills each room,

a presence of older wisdom.'

This is a wonderful poem and I enjoyed reading it. Those perfect moments are hard to come by so when we find them we want to freeze them in time forever. Thank you for sharing.

"Perfect Peace in an Instant" Powerful words just by themselves. Rare thing to find so hold on when you do. Good write. Windy

I have to agree with Jane, those lines are my favorite. I loved how this was simple yet held a great meaning. I think this is very good.
