The Gift of November
CALM IS
Calm is
peace,
serenity,
equanimity,
balance, or
a heart
grounded
in the harmoniousness
of a great thankfulness
happily
floating around
a satisfying ease,
a relaxed state of being,
a song beyond note,
an energy sublime
on the pulse of
a muscle,
a virtue,
an exclamation point,
a standard,
a choice,
a mindset,
a lifestyle,
a skillset,
a Power —
we can all sky
dive into,
like a glint,
a force of healing
and self-healing,
an uplifting
challenge,
holding out
a healthy ageless
language
for life
flowing
like a banner for beauty
and limitless boundary,
open,
sure,
and clear
in a sincere
mindfulness
with our humanity
and all the stars high
on light.
Calm is
an act of courage.
We have,
that kindness,
a kindness
for the ocean surge
of quiet
generosity
in us.
We are an act
of Love—.
Calm is
a butterfly.

Beautiful Marina! 🥰
Hi Marina,I love your writing.
You bring the power of warmth.
November slipped away quietly,
we busily decorate the corner of the home,
to meet the arrival of Christmas.
I hope you will always be happy.
Love your Shuai
Shuai, I am so deeply touched by your kindness to my writes, and more
that this is not in your first language. Inspiring.
You show such a generosity of dedication and kind, sincere love.
Enjoy your holiday of light! Let us all.
