Mystic Rose Rose Poet Free verse

Silence Listens

Silence listens to the voices of the people 
while on earth, a wisp of wind digresses   
In heaven God listens to each silent call  
at the footfalls of Silence...

Silence breathes quietly at the crack of dawn  
respiring softly at the ledge of twilight sunset  
Silence sits at the nucleus of our souls and lies 
at the footfalls of Silence...

Silence is at the ear of the heart it does not speak 
gently it leads us with a cupped hand to peace 
It knows how to collect waterfalls and breezes 
at the footfalls of Silence...

Silence is my linguistic heaven, my favorite speech 
it is my mantra, my Yoga Master, my go to place 
When things overwhelm I go to Silence and live,       
at the footfalls of Silence....

Vladislav Raven June 3, 2025 at 3:52 AM Hi Mystic, I sometimes wish that I could meditate instead of always having to be on the move. I would love to find that silent place within myself.
