Can you find the stillness in the hum? The small space between the words, the banter, the music Where do you find your spaces for thought, processing, planning – for gratitude? The empty alleyways The blue sky between clouds Meadows stretching under power lines Time between meetings and emails Between people and agendas Time to eat Time to breathe Time to spend with the ones who matter most The ones that motivate me What do I find in the stillness Who brings me back to myself How long does it take to find me in the midst of this hum? The taste of basil Find me in the hustle Find me with my legs dangling over the pier Find me traipsing through the wild flowers Find me foraging the mulberries Find me as I look you deep in your eyes and sincerely wish you have a good afternoon Find me as I slow into the spaces The stillness will find me I will find me and You will find me too.
