What is tranquility ?
I read it is the state or quality of being calm.
I think of the words I associate with this quality;
Peaceful
Quiet
Unruffled
Tranquil
Liquid
Buoyant
I also read that it implies;
absence of noise
absence of violence
absence of worry
and this causes me worry,
because I know this is not life
Life is not the absence of worry.
I would like to be tranquil
but not dead.
I would like to experience tranquility
in Life.
We search for it as though it was truth.
I search for it and I try to create it.
I try to imagine it in the midst of life
and so, I wrote;
Time was relinquished to the waves
and the billowing white clouds blown across
a bright blue sky.
The last train might come and go but
there would be a bus and if not,
there is a footpath.
Tranquility reigned now.
She sank back into the sand and fell asleep.
