In a world fractured by noise, chaos and fear. We turn to the land, to nature, to water, for serenity. Touching the earth we can smell clean black soil, we can feel the sand of the shoreline or desert. The scents of river water or the ocean, nurture your soul. Underneath the noise of humanity, the Earth speaks. You can hear her and she offers you healing and calm. She brings inner peace.
Tell us a story from the world that you dream of. A story of the land.
A story of peace.
PROMPT: PEACE
GENRE: OPEN
MICROFICTION: 300 words or less
Peace came and said hello
To my surprise, iit began to glow
26 acres in a holler not far
We can often get there by car.
Nature rules this enchanted land
Wildlife roams because it can
Panthers, bears and bats
Groundhogs, eagles and Bobcats
We make a garden but there's no guarantee
There will be any greens for me
Everything nibbles and bites and chews
And there's no one to easily sue
An evening on deck with lighted candles
Lights up our life with all we can handle
Dusk brings out the nightjars and bats
All the bugs will make them fat
It is a peace that settles our souls
And each night is different, never gets old.
Our migrant friends have all returned
And sing the songs that my heart burns (for).
The joy we find on that blessed land
feeds our peace that moves like sand
I gladly share what love is there
And love renews because we care.
Thank you, Turtles 🐢 🐢🐢
