Quiet the Noise

Quiet the Noise

Where is your peace?  Do you find it in the morning birdsong,

or when touching the gentle skin of your baby? 

Perhaps it greets you in the garden as a gentle breeze kisses your cheek,

and earthy smells reach your senses. 

It may come to you in a lover’s embrace or soft words from your child,

but you can be sure peace comes to you more often than you know.

Open your heart, attune your senses or you’ll miss it, this peace that surrounds you.

Your soul is reaching out offering solace in small ways and soft words,

But alas you do not hear them, for you have yet to quiet the noise.
