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.

    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.
