Solace
Connor Jack Dec 2015
Owls in the night sky echo around me like spirits being set free
Stars float in and out of my vision whilst I scan the heavens above
Ahead of me there is darkness as far as the eye can see
A soft, intricate darkness that I am thankful to be apart of

The quiet, peaceful sounds of nature ring about the unseen scape
I'm falling through time without a worry or a woe
In front of me, my own visions and dreams begin to take shape
And they tell me the story of my life with the forms they show

Hurried beings would escape the vicinity in a daze
They wish too much for the light of day to see the sights
For they find bliss in the brightest of days
But I find solace in the darkest of nights

A thousand birds fly in unison across the sky
A beautiful peace spreads around the vicinity
And all woes and worries wave goodbye
Good feelings stretch to infinity

A thousand birds glide through the air
The landscape reveals it's true beauty slowly
It's intricacies crafted with great care
the pleasantness seems almost holy

A thousand birds drift through the breeze
The Earth presents itself fondly
Time seems to freeze
Nature will triumph proudly

A thousand birds can be seen from a distance
Serenity follows them and slowly fades away
And peace falls back into nonexistence
Oh, how I wish it to stay

A bird flies overhead
holding a long steady flight
gracious flapping wings and not a place to be
more freedom than can be imagined

dives and turns through the air
patterns through the sky
it's brilliant colors map out the landscape
more beauty than can be imagined

it soars high through the air
stealthily ducking, hiding, and gliding
not a sound can be heard
more silent than can be imagined

not a fear in sight
nor a stress or a worry
just a simple bird life of flying or soaring
it is at peace, a peace that can only be imagined

— The End —
