Communication
Communicaion
We let the silence stand between us
Too long.
Its shadow hid our thoughts;
Then we remembered those jewels of our lives,
Our friends -
We spoke to one another then;
The rime of ice around our hearts
Cracked and fell away
And we saw one another in clear light again.
We searched across the gaps;
The Misunderstandings, striving to be something greater
Than the sum of our differences
Shut our predjudices out
To let sympathy in;
Then we were noble.
Then we felt the strength
In the midst of our fragility.
