What a cool and beautiful write Joann. There is no poetry like the Poetry of Silence. With your simplicity you have weaved a wonderful cool and still painting with the striking colors of Nature. Great write my friend. Love and best wishes always...Ravindra...

Nice write! The idea of stillness brings with it an air of mystery - rest and waiting for eruption - and the thought that the final stillness comes with death is troublesome to say the least. And yet it certainly signifies simplicity. Very well delivered Joann!
