I'm teaching a class called Peace Arts & Poetry where participants use a labyrinth and poetry to explore the creation of internal peace. They leave with a mini book that contains a poem about peace. The class is November 21st 1:00-3:00 at Springwater Studio, 120 SW Towle Ave. Gresham, OR. Here is my poem:
Water Way
Follow
the riverbed
wash clean dust and debris
purified triviality
cleanse me
Arrive
in peace
through streams of green
and humming bees
mitigated silence
So much easier here
between pine trees and idleness
amid effortless lakeside purl
to hear
your Beloved
il bel far niente
light riffles round us shadows fall
day rests with cricket calls
lullaby psalms
be still
