Calmness Cloak
When I see
Storm clouds gather
And I hear
Rumbling thunder,
I hide inside a cloak
No one else can see.
A calm space for me
To breathe and be.
No harmful words
Creeping in.
All is quiet
Within.
Storm clouds gather
And I hear
Rumbling thunder,
I hide inside a cloak
No one else can see.
A calm space for me
To breathe and be.
No harmful words
Creeping in.
All is quiet
Within.
