Peace


Snooze
Originally uploaded by Ottie

My soul feels peace;

my eyes are set on the sleeping dragon.


The shapes of the reptile, elegant and lithe.
Does he dream of clear waters and lush trees?
His somnolent dignity betrays no ambition.
Perhaps his fantasy lies in the simple bliss of now.
I watch the lizard smile at his own quiet revelation.


My soul feels at peace;

present in this green moment.
