Poems of Samuel E. Stone


BACK        NEXT

Mountain of Tranquility

An alpestrine setting sitting upon stone,
where a misty dew clouds the chilled air,
radiates a warm solitude of naturefs own,
as an angelic presence of spirit is shared.

The sounds of silence screams so loud,
yet feeling the presence of peace so true,
a sensation of just floating upon a cloud,
surrounded by the skies of endless blue.

Panoramic view, a breath taking scene,
at one with nature brings an inner peace,
pondering thoughts with feeling so serene,
uplifts onefs spirit with a new found lease.

With spread wings an eagle soars above,
a splendor of the wild searching for prey,
boldly feared by the early morning dove,
snow cap mountain, such a heavenly perch.

So far away from the sleepless city lights,
serenity consumes the essence of onefs soul,
but down in the civilized world, people fight,
and sadly, power and greed take a mortal toll.
