On the Other Side of Silence

When you take a walk in nature allowing silence to be your guide… If you listen…listen carefully…silence will reveal her other side. For on the other side of silence…enchanting sounds appear… and when you take the time to listen…oh the wonders you will hear. In the silence on a mountain path…listen to the breeze. In the silence of a garden…listen to the bees. In the silence of a forest…listen to the trees. In the silence of a winter day…listen to the freeze. In the silence of the shoreline…listen to the waves. In the silence of a cemetery…listen to the graves In the silence of a riverbank…listen to the stream. In the silence of the evening…listen to your dreams On the other side of silence…nature conducts a symphony. On the other side of silence…is where she finds her harmony. On the other side of silence…softly filling the air… a myriad of wonders…waiting for you there.

In the moments before the dawning of a new day, I find the silence peaceful, and even more so when I hear the first trills of bird songs. We need to listen in expectation of such moments. Nicely written, Jim.
