Solitude settles lightly—
a stealthy shifting of space,
a softening of everything
that usually presses close.
It steadies the air—
lets thought move cleanly,
lets the World fall back
where only inland oceans remain.

short but very sweet my friend
Good to shift gears every now and again. Thanks friend ππ»ποΈ
most welcome
Solitude clears the space around us allowing us to see more clearly, to breath more deeply, to hear more profoundly not just without but within. With no threats no barriers are needed, no obstructions of our view no buffers to our hearing. A lovely write Cryptic
Thank you Soren. That is an astute reading. Most appreciatedπποΈ
Arqios, I deeply relate to the relief of everything finally falling away...leaving room to breathe, think, and simply exist. This truly spoke to me, my friend! πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬
Thanks for speaking backππ»ποΈπ€©
Good write A. Then I came along and said 'BOO!!' and ruined everything of silence, quietness, peace, etc. lol.
Wouldnβt have it any other way, friend! You know Iβm good to get you back, BOO π€©πππ»ππ»ποΈ
I really like this. We all need a Place of Peace and Quiet every now and then.
And you described it so well.
Thanks from that placeππ»ποΈ
