Ember Nights

Moment of Silence

Stoic, stillness under an ember, ocean sky.

Indolent intentions as the day passes by.

Listless breezes caress my face and the wind whispers.

Empathic consolation for a weary mind.

Nayad's dreams ripple through the water.

Calm. I close my eyes and let it sink in.

Enveloping nights wrap me in serenity.

Acrostic
