There I was,
In the early hours,
Walking in the woods.
It crept onto me,
Like a leopard looking to hunt.
The silent whispers had me tranquil,
The dew made me shiver.
There I stood,
Drowned in the moment of silence,
In the moment of peace—
Unbothered by the chirps of the cricket,
Unmoved by the worm beneath my feet.
This was peace,
One I might never experience again.
