Very soothing and calming. Peaceful. How hard sometimes it is to get to that place in your heart & mind to feel completely absent of turmoil. Some never get their. Reminds me of sitting near a babbling stream and listening to mother nature on a beautiful spring day. Taking in all the wonders. Nicely done!

Now this put me in a great place, very meditative and Zen like, really enjoyed this one and happen to agree with all that was written. Personal strength leads to tranquility for sure. Contentment is gained from within not without. Self reflection and honesty leads to humility and improvement which leads to confidence and strength. Nicely done very much enjoyed this one. Fav. part was.
"I know in my heart that
My spirit is unfaltering
not wavering or weakening
with excellent reasoning,
information, judgment, or grounds.
I have serenity, which brings peace
when I allow myself to relax
and to look forward
to what life has to offer me
and what I can offer life. "
Excellent writing,
Robert

I am clear, cloudless, untroubled
when serenity abounds within
The whole poem and presentation was serene.
A good read.
I have nothing to crit.
Cheers

Wow, this poem is so peaceful, and happy. Your poem flowed very well. Your poem reminded me of a flowing river(just like the pic. Even if you didn't have the pic up, it's exactly what I would have thought of.). Your pic reminds me of my favorite place on the face of the earth. The colors went well with your poem.
Awesome job,

I see you know serenity as well, my friend, and it's nice to see it in a free verse format. You have a wonderful manner of expression in your work and this piece had a very nice calming effect on me. Thank you.

The pace and flow of words is like a gentle stream of confident thought. It supports well the title and the sense of completeness. It was perfect in presentation and substance.
Well done!

This is another nicely-written poem. Serenity is such an elusive quality for many, and you've eloquently expressed its many aspects, just like the facets of a diamond.

You have painted a beautifully serene picture that transfers its calming effect to the reader. The poem flows well and has a good form. I can find no fault with it. Great job.

I agree with your poem that this is a great way to feel, but it's not always easy to feel so peaceful. Your poem helped a little, almost like it was relaxation therapy.
