Poem
Before the traffic awakes me,
Or the train slowly vibrates my sleeping zone,
Silence defeats the sounds and demands the morning.

As the early morning rises, most often with smiles;
Before the sun rises from the eastern sky, or even
Before the bright and morning star starts to stare,
Silence awaits to break forth in my thirsty soul, and
The acquiescence of my entire being bows in harmony,
offering not the slightest trace of resistance, because
silence has shown me the pathway to calm, poise, and peace.

Silence teaches me to beware that she hides from unwise ones
but handsomely rewards the anticipating and alerted ones
who crave freedom from the overflows of sound. She blesses
those who long for never a whisper for just a while.

Silence, like precious gold, wraps herself in seclusion
away from all the confusion, but unlike fools gold, silence
makes no pretensions nor displays any trace of delusions.
The deepest core of me thrives hard for silence, a treasure from                                                                          
the heavens and I treat her tenderly as I quietly relax in her loving arms.

Through reflections of my surrendered mind, silence takes me places I could
never go otherwise, shows me things I can bravely do, and by God's grace,
convinces me that I can be the man God made me to be.

I tell you, the birds and the trees know whereof I speak.
Listen, if you dare, to their chirping to the rhythm of silence.
Listen to the slow-moving gentle winds giving homage to silence.
Even heaven speaks of a 30-minute pause, giving way to silence*
