QUIET - a poem

rarely do i have that moment

that piece of time

that time of peace

quiet

no neighbors

above

across the courtyard way

quiet

i stare at my faith board on the wall

prayerfully contemplating

each piece of paper

each handwritten scripture

an art piece in itself

quiet

i read God's promises

trusting by faith

that His plans for me

are for good

giving me a future and a hope

believing Him when He tells me

He is blessing these latter days more than my beginnings

quiet

i read notes from friends

ten years worth of notes

encouragement

inspiration

love

quiet

i look at the written words from my books

i see the visual artistry that God gifted me to create

with only the stroke of my finger on top a digital canvas

thankful

humble

quiet

this is a rare time of peace

that gives me a piece of time

shh

the quiet

i'll take it
