The stillness and quiet
Loud in my ears
I notice every single sound
Each seems magnified
To gentle tumult
Suddenly
A murmuration
Of a thousand starlings
Tumbling out of the mist
Under the gaze
Of a hunting hawk
And there you are
My beautiful doe
On your high, high hill
In your lovely silhouette
Alert and watchful
So far away
But with me still.

@matty7w This is a joyous, yet peaceful greeting to the new day. At first I thought it was strange to have those two feelings at the same time, but your writing bridges the gap between feeling at peace (which nature always does for me) and feeling my heart expand explosively. 💙
