It's a Mellow Vibe



It’s a mellowed out vibe
Cello playing in my ear drums
Strummin’ along my thoughts of chillaxin’
Saxin’ on a groove on my way home tonight
Underground vehicle moving at a rhythmic pace
Chasing traffic gliding smoothly
I’m feelin’ soothed
On this Thursday eve moon…
‘Cuz this is a piece of a peace that surpasses all understanding,
When you know He’s with you in companion
At all times
Wherever you go
In your life,
Rockin’ to Philippians 4:6-7,
It’s a heavenly, mellow vibe

About this poem

I wrote this on my way home from work last night while listening to jazz music. Then I had an epiphany as to why I was feeling this way, midway through the poem :)

    You capture the quiet moments when the eternal meets the now, when our daily life becomes the moment of transcendence. How special to succeed in sharing through poetry.

    This poem has a great rhythm to it, just as the jazz that inspired it ;)
