Edge of the World

At the edge of the world
where sea and storm clash
against jagged cliffs,

I saw such a symphony
of grace and elegance,
of beauty unrelenting

And I realized then
the secrets my heart longed to find
were not hidden
but rather there to be found

In the rustling of the leaves,
the shimmering of the stars,
the trickling of water
against the riverbank

The world spoke to me
of life and of love,
but it often spoke no louder
than a whisper

Do take time to be still,
to listen,
to listen
