in solitude I searched
for silence
– when the sun slid
above the horizon,
but heard instead the
happy chirping
of morning birds
– in the afternoon stillness
the sound of buzzing
filled the air as bees
went about their busy-ness
– as the sun gave up the day
and the dusk of evening
enveloped me,
but the breeze whispered
in the trees, rustling the leaves
– even under the gentle moon a
chorus of crickets were singing
In solitude I searched
for silence
and found peace instead

Tuesday Platform – the sound of silence

Lovely mood. There is too much noise in the world. We numb ourselves with busyness and babble.

Such silence is often sought after… the silence that’s gentle and kind, a weightless silence.
