It lays at the bottom of the ocean, a midnight blue blanket
tucked in close over the low lying fish. It pats down
the vicious waves, calms the storm wrecked.
It sparkles in the evening sky as the stars
take their rightful throne in the black. It is the full moon
gazing down upon the hill of the valley
where rainbows of flowers wave their petals
in the soft spring wind, the blades of grass
whispering their peace, gossiping
in the slight pitter patter of rain as it treds
on the small splotches of pavement with its blue,
yellow, and red playground markings.
It is the silence that settles in my heart
as the calm after the storm has rested.
