PAD Challenge Day 20: Resting in Peace
PAD Challenge Day 20: Write a rest poem.
Resting in Peace
Lately eyes been focusing on
resting in peace while living.
Vital as my vital signs,
I've been trying to out sleep
my personal computers
and sleep numbers
I mean good,
down to the bones;
Flesh healed and refreshed;
Muscles relaxed without
muscle relaxers kind of rest.
A whole rest without counting sheep
by quarters, halves, eighth
or sixteenth like music sheets just to sleep.
So much rest and peace
that I don't have to lie still in it
or be hush-hush about it.
I can be a solid solitude or
happily included by
wholly peaceful company.
I am favored,
not in people pleasing.
I can feel sorrowful,
not sorry for you.
Peaceful enough that
my no's even know better
to be a no show to no shows.
More peaceful at reaching out to
others that know how to live in peace too.
