Tranquility

December 19December 19tranquility,city park lake,birds,cypress tree

I am thankful for tranquility. Tranquility is defined as peaceful, restful, or peace of mind. I like the latter definition. When we are tranquil, we are usually quite mellow and have complete peace of mind. It is nice to be in that state of restfulness after going through life's hectic stress.

 

This is City Park Lake in Baton Rouge, looking out at one of my favorite cypress trees. It is also a favorite roosting place for these birds who look like they are very tranquil at the moment the camera captured this view.

 

tranquility

 

tranquility base

was a perfect place

to get away from it all

but there was no air

and little gravity

so man could not fall

on the moon

they played their tune

the men walked around

but there was little else to do

and if they shouted out

there was little sound

so they planted their flag

with wires so it wouldn’t sag

and went on their merry way

back home to earth

for less merriment and mirth

but not as bored you could say.
