Tranquillity in the Key of E

tranquillity
nothing invades my personal space
the faint twitter of spring birds
wind running fast as a butterfly
ambles through my vault
no tension - no pressure - just me
and the distant whispering of traffic
the brook scuttles by at my feet
as its torrent chills my skin
tranquillity
there is nobody to nag here
no expectations to live up to
No images to supersede
just the hypnotic swirl
of the wind through new blossom
and the jolly laughter and bark-bark
of best friends across the field
searching for shining treasures
tranquillity
removed from the rat-race
and the 'me first's of humdrum life
I feel nothing - see nothing - think nothing
my new life has begun.
