The Sound of Silence

Listen to this sound profound This melody par excellence From the time unbound And farther more limit of existence Inspiring you to explore The boundless span of vision The valleys that my searching soul lure To fly on the wings of reason Let thoughts travel freely To the worlds unknown And your craving eyes see Beyond the sun and moon The world where the life Does not wear the shroud And free of all strife With lasting bliss endowed Where the colour of spring Isn’t pale with autumn’s fear And on the boughs nightingale sing The eulogy of roses far and near On a solitary night In the darkness dense Let your thoughts Ignite And listen to the sound of silence

fragile the bloom, the delicate flower, which scents the dawn, and caresses the hours, without a sound or taste it pleads, for touch and falls as it is eased...[for you] and all the kind comments you have left me. Light & Love

SUPER, Mohammad, a regular meditation, or contemplation in words. I particularly like the subject, being an explorer myself. I wrote a poem with the same title. I also like the idea of a "room," be it without or within. I look forward to reading more of your poetry. Love, Daver
