Listen to poem:

Silence

I hear the whisper of the forest floor
But first I have to still my soul..
Then still.. 
a little more.

For in-between un-spoken words,
Like in-between the trees;
The Spirit hovers round us
as the fresh pine scented breeze.

So take a moment..
take a breath.
Rest a while with me.
Awakening life's stillness..
Just as it's meant to be.

Thank you for sharing this heartfelt and well crafted writing. Beautifully done and spiritual (not in a religion way).
