Poem: Rest

Rest, oh sweet rest, where have you gone?
In this world so busy and hurried, I long.
Long for the quiet moments of peace,
When worries and stress seem to cease.

Oh, how I yearn for a moment of reprieve,
To find solace in the stillness and believe
That in silence, my soul can truly unwind,
And in that serenity, true freedom I find.

For in rest, we replenish our weary souls,
And find the strength to once again be whole.
In the embrace of slumber, we find release,
A respite from the trials that never cease.

Yet, rest eludes us in this frantic race,
A never-ending journey, a never-ending chase.
But amidst the chaos and never-ending strain,
We must find a way to rest, to regain.

Rest is not a luxury, but a necessity,
A vital part of our very existence, you see.
For in rest, we find clarity and insight,
And emerge stronger, ready to face our fight.

So, let us strive to make rest a priority,
To create space for tranquility and serenity.
For it is in those moments of stillness and peace,
That we find the strength to continue, to find release.

Rest, oh sweet rest, let me find you again,
In the quiet moments, let my soul mend.
For it is through rest that I truly thrive,
And in that rest, may I truly come alive.

Thank-you for reading.  Many blessings to all.

Much Love and light,
