Contemplation by Mike Williams 01/25/2016 @ 8:22 P.M.

Beyond the shadows of crest covered hill,
Betwixt the spring and path. 
I wondered lonely contemplating my will, 
Knowing not myself by half. 

There in the midst an opening cleared, 
Among the violets in bloom. 
I sat a spell and longingly peered, 
Gently upon the clear flume. 

In that moment of subtle reflection, 
I pondered deeply my core. 
Shadows broke into sunlight perfection, 
And I knew myself all the more.
