A Mind That is Still
By Judith Froemming c. 2015
“There’s a mind running loose
that thinks peace is elusive,
puts its head in a noose
judges quiet as reclusive.
There’s a mind making stories
that’s certain they’re true,
creating monsters and worries
until the heart turns blue.
There’s a mind that is still and
as stories float by,
treats them kindly as children
lets them go without ‘Why?'”
