Peace is a moment discovered, but not held.
When you see something closely and intently, not always seen before.
You had not spent the time to look in detail, but now with a generous breath you draw.
Then comes the pause to stay,
space for thoughts to wander,
and a reward of discoveries within.
What comes is the discovery looked at with a different purpose.
Previously just ignored or forgotten,
now is a reflection, a reawakening of a stillness needed.
Where sounds are now heard, colours now seen, scents or textures now encountered.
Just now in this space you created, in these minutes you allowed.
You were in these moments, held, embraced.
And what was it you have found!
