Awakening

Slowly drifting, leaving life
beyond my sight, shifting
into a place where noise
fades beneath the murmur of water.

A storm of thoughts,
a rumble of thunder
silencing rolling waves
that crash against the boat.

An orchestra of discord
conducts a spell
on a morning when sunrays’ feet
leave sparkles on the water.

As swiftly as lightning,
flashes of tranquility,
splashes of fresh water
awaken a blissful soul.

Tuning in to soothing sounds,
entering paradise
while the mind’s noise
exits through the backdoor.
