Still in Storm

inside the dark eye of the strong storm inside
filled with swirling and turning and unending
to do’s,
to make,
to finish,
to see,
to hear,
to read,
to write,
my tired eyes,
my tired mind,
my tired heart,
sssssh.

be still.
be still.

  1. Wow, wonderful. Such words that I find dear in Blible verses and in music The Frays: “Be Still” one of my all time favorite songs and such a comfort at night and in hard times. “Remember hard the words I said, Be Still, Be Still, Be Still.”
