Tranquility

                                             As I sit in my house,

I look out the dining room window

I can see the children outside playing 

without a care in the world.

I see a light breeze rustling the 

 leaves of a tree ever so softly.

All is well and peaceful.

At this moment all my thoughts are pleasant.

Two birds fly by,

free to go where ever their wings take them.

Nature is so beautiful.

Blue sky with fluffy white clouds,

Green trees, some with colorful fruit.

Off in the distance I see flowers

in different sizes and colors,

I can almost smell their sweet scent.

The day is turning to evening,

the children are coming in.

Its time to end these words now,

let my night with them begin.

By,

Cheryl Pachai
