Unslept nights
Floating between here and there
Looking for an anchor
At the mercy of the wind, words and worries
It’s there, within her hands
Only her soul can touch it
When she is ready to receive
The bright light of peace
Grounded and rested
A breeze bathes away the worries
A smile of comfort
Lights up her face
