be still and listen

just a bottle of water and some bread.
no phone
no wallet
no keys
i wont be needing those
no i want to sevre myself from material things today
today
i need to think
no
i want to think
but not so simply
you see im going to a place only i know of
off the path made from concrete
no sign of man for miles
i dont know why not
nor do i want man to find this celestial vista
it really is a beutiful place
but i dont know that because i looked or saw it
no
"i can hear it"
all of it
everything
the water rolling over the rocks
the wind moving effortlessly through the trees
a twig snaps
a bird chirps
its a robin
thats a starling
and thats a cardinal
and still even more sounds
a hoof pulls across the ground one two three times
i take a deep breath
...
now
exhale
all i can hear is the wind
thats not all there is mind you
its just all i choose to hear at the moment
calmness
the ground where i sit gives just a bit
now i hear the robin
just the robin
now the water
now
nothing...
my mind hits a single note
i chime back in harmony
another note
again in harmony
im finding the answers i need
