Silence

There is something quite pleasing about the quiet nature of the outdoors. I inquire not about its soul, but witness it, speechless with mouth open, and I don't beleaguer it with nonsense, such as why, how, when. I but listen and watch and know that this is the way things are. That is peace enough for me. And it's the peace I seek whenever I can tear myself away from work and the city.

See the sun
Slowly slide down
Falling!

Watch the horizon
Hone from the heavens
Beauty!

Collect your soul
Respect the moment
Ever fading!
