Let Silence be your Guide

The world outside, a cacophony of sound, 
A constant hum, a ceaseless, restless beat. 
But here within, a quiet space is found, 
Where peace resides, and solace makes its seat.

A hush descends, a gentle, calming veil, 
That wraps around and stills the inner strife. 
No need for words, no need for tales to tell, 
Just stillness deep, the rhythm of my life.

The gentle breath, a soft and measured sigh,
 A whisper on the air, so light and free. 
No clamoring thoughts, no worries to deny, 
Just quietude, a silent reverie.

In this serene embrace, my soul takes flight, 
And finds its peace, within the silent night.

Nothing beats sitting in complete silence and enjoying the peace. I grew up in a city so it was quite noisy with all the sounds of the city, we moved to the countryside about 30 years ago, best move I ever made. Tom
