Sometimes Peace (Free verse) by MattDahl
When the spring rain stops and the smell is sweet, When it?s four a.m. and no cars fill the street That?s when I find it. When I?m building forts with blankets and quilts, When I leave the booth absolved of my guilt That?s when I find it. When a quiet pool reflects the sun, When the work was hard but now it?s all done That?s when I find it. When the summer is hot and the dragon flies hover, When I find a surprise in a note from a lover, When I see a deer stepping out from the corn, When the night goes to sleep and a new day is born That?s when I find it. When I catch a glimpse of the dolphin?s grace, When I imagine a smile and my mind sees your face? That?s when I find it.
