Shhhh
Shhhh
~
don't make a sound
there is nothing so peaceful as stillness
time marks places unforseen to us
melting candles and burning flame
quiet in the night
~
a feather falling from bird in flight
no sound not even a whisper
clouds billowing by overhead
white and dark alike
no sound at all to changing seasons
~
sunlight bowing out with reason
to moonlit skies
all take place in silence
silence of smiles with words unspoken
as silent as we hide nighttime cries
~
silence in tears rolling from eyes
summer wind blow softly
photographs tell of peace
of times that were
a soft kiss on a quiet face
~
a gentle touch of loving grace
invisible tides rising and falling
all so still that no one can notice
lovebeds softly like willows weep
love that speaks with no tongue
~
murmurs to our little one
electric light of dreams in dark
broken bird shells above in nest
while blood moves quiet through our veins
to fullness of another's heart
