Poem

Do you hear it? Do you hear the nothingness
Not a single word, not one solitary word at all
So that a teardrop sobs in the void of emptiness
Dogwood leaves scream as they plummet and fall

Did you say something? I would hope you did not
Why would you break the noiselessness of serenity
Disturbing the pressing brain cells from a thought
Like muting the sound of a full orchestra's symphony

The whisper of smoke billowing from a rolled cigarette
A beating heart so loud as to wake up the sleeping
Wiping away the silent fear and the smell of sweat
The drooping sound of willows and magnolias weeping

The tongue-tied echo does not return when you call
Flames as they vainly struggle to survive in wet weather
The dragging a snake makes when it slithers and crawls
Job's friends were respectful as they sat calmly together

Allow me to nestle in my quietness and learn to embrace it
Acknowledging silence is golden and is not open to debate
As a grateful patient seeks repose in an intensive care unit
Escaping the chaos and the confusion is well worth the wait
