Quidam's View

Another Poem from the Park Bench

by Colleen Barry
Written 10-23-05

Again, I cannot sleep

Again, I sit outside

            And let the cool night air cradle me

            And embrace my thoughts.

 

Into the night I gaze. I see a stillness settle.

 

For the stillness, there still is life

            That rustles and stirs.

The sounds echoing as they rapidly

            Cut through the night.

 

Take a different perspective

Inhale and allow the air to breathe

            Life into your existence.
