Silence Is Golden
Silence Is Golden
Written: by Miracle Man
2-4-2020
The time I find most prized
is the uninterrupted hours I spend each morning,
when silence is mellifluous.
I find it a quiet, peaceful but sometimes lonely time.
A time of communication with God,
attentive to the thoughts He is giving me.
But to soon the world outside awakes,
and the silence that was sweet and plethoric,
is stolen by the banging of a sanitation truck.
“Use what talents you possess: the woods would be very silent
if no birds sang there except those that sang best”.
Henry Van Dyke
