Silence




"The moon and the night climb through my window"
Bathing my waking dreams in its ambient glow
The world seems peaceful with the moon in charge
The  music of silence is the loveliest symphony I know..

This is sooo lovely with images of peacefulness and serenity that lulls me into a state of tranquillity with the symphony of silence. Beautifully painted!

What a lovely write, Barbara! Carrie always has beautiful poetry and your take on it was great too. I found a way to exercise - I go to the community pool every chance I get. Adults swim free if they're doing laps. I swam a mile and a half. Funny how I don't get dizzy in water, but have trouble just getting out of the pool. Thanks for reading my limerick. Sadly, it's true. Sara suggested a remedy I'll try. Miss you! Love, Carolyn
