Broken Quiet

Broken Quiet Here I hear a hum, a ringing, A refrigerator song is singing, The quiet is always broken. The beauty of birds trilling, The rush of new wind chilling, The quiet is always broken. The sweetness of a pet’s soft snoring, May send my affection soaring, still The quiet is always broken. The answer lies and lives or dies In the stillness of You-word sighs Where quiet is never broken. Your peace stays and sorrow flees, As if it were a healed disease, when In quiet, Your word is spoken.

There' s something warm and tender in your verse. But be it quiet spoken or broken. It speaks to the mind and heart. I dedicated a verse for you I' be hope you read called " Sun Light Wonders" inter Peace --James Edward Lee Sr
