Tranquility

 *Tranquility*

Lit by a lonely Moon

Stardust & innumerable galaxies

Rub their sparkle to the decaying world

Sometimes a single firefly

Lights an abandoned Night

Pond reflecting a quarter Moon

To cheer up the countryside

A candle fighting the wind to light tombstones

Silhouettes of the departed

Peeping from the trees

Keeping watch

It has its own heart beat

Chirps of a male cricket

Howling winds

Waves crashing down the shores

A lonely cry of an owl

Clocks ticking away the time

The crackling flames from the lit pyres

Birds fluttering away the insects from the nests

A traunt cloud scattering rain on the tarmac

It has a colour of darkness

Grey of the sky

Blue of the oceans

Greens of the forests & fields

Colours of a desert

Or a camouflaging fog

Silently the memories knock

Effortlessly floating tedpoles

Wind playing a calm sea

Moonlight gently shaping the nape of a lonely Church

A loving heart equipped to feel all this

Away from scantiest Wisdom
