You with the Still Soul

Maybe you have a still soul
that goes murmurless
like water in the deep of rivers;

And perchance you wander
silent amid the din
of the world's grinding barter
like one journeying in strange lands.

You, too, with the still soul,
have your mission,
for beneath the dashing, noisy waves
must ever run the silent waters
that give the tide its course.
