After, the Calm

Yes, yes the earth moved,

after the calm

you view the destructive nature

realizations that 'still'

keep you out of harm's way

the earth can move in two ways...for the good or for the bad...either way, later in life after much experience, we learn to protect ourselves and ride it out...sometimes that makes us miss good things we could have, which may not be the best thing...but it does keeps us out of harm's way.

love short pieces like this..leaves us places to go to as readers.

This made me think of a huge storm, also called a hurricane, or a twister, in the eye, the calm lays, but after a great chaos is found... A lovely short piece of wisdom, and also very human related... well done!

To breathe after the destruction, taking inventory, making sure everything is ok, only to realize nothing is ok. Except for the fact that you were left out of harms way. Very interesting flow to the writing. Overall I like it very much.

now, this is what i meant by context...excellent use thereof. as you have demonstrated, the whole context of the write is arranged with one word. well done!

[rhythm&blues]
