The Peace of Wild Things- Wendell Berry
The Peace of Wild Things- Wendell Berry
When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be.
I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief.
I come into the presence of still water
and I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light.
For a time I rest in the grace of the world,
and am free.
