Still
The earth stands still, silent
Not a sound to be heard
I look at the trees, seeing their beauty
What a rare moment to appreciate.
What a brief fleeting moment,
Do I wish for its return?
How peaceful and calming of an experience.
In a moment least expecting,
Such a beautiful escape.

I took my son and niece to Gori, a small town in Georgia where Joseph Stalin was born. They talked me into visiting the Stalin's Museum, the largest in the post-Soviet space. I had resisted going there because I just can't stand the monster and know enough about him, or so I thought.
