Free Fall

Respect the power of noise outside
 When the noise inside grows
  Louder and more insistent
   Shaking your very being inside and out.

Move away from the outside noise
 Move into quiet and stillness
  Time to give mind and heart space to settle
    To grow quiet once more

Like a seed floating down from a gnarled old tree
 To be planted
   To root and 
     To grow

“Peace of mind arrives the moment you come to 

peace with the contents of your mind.”

~ Rasheed Ogunlaru
