The Peace of the Willows

Poetic Healing

The peace of the willows
is found in the gentle cool breezes
as they pass through each blade
swishing softly to produce
a safe haven where the mind
can rest at the end of a weary day

Rest by the water’s edge,
trickling stream navigating
over life’s rocky challenges
to flow on, around the bends
and turns, through darkness
and light to the vast delta
of understanding, faith, and hope
where all life comes together,
as far as the eyes can see
as deep as the heart can feel

Rest there, waves lapping at your feet,
allow the pull to take you under
make you one with their gentle lullaby,
the warm breezes,
the vast expanse which tugs
at you, begging for connection,
the peace, love, and the light of your soul
