POEM: Stillness, by Sharpham retreat leader Steve Banks

15th November, 2024

Stillness, by Steve Banks, who co-leads the Rest Deeply Winter retreat in Sharpham House, from Sunday 1 December


 

Amidst all

The to-ing and fro-ing,

The conflictions and contradictions,

The busyness and silliness,

The getting and fretting…

The beauty,

The wonder,

The simplicity,

The necessity…

Of stillness…

Stillness…

Peace.
