Mystic Rose Rose Poet Rhyme

Silent Symphony

(Title taken from Sara Etgen-Baker) 

In this little island before my house 
I hear not a sound not even a mouse 
muted trees of valor stand still in grace
I think I almost won the race 

Tracks of history live here on this island 
I recall the day you took me by the hand 
nearer to forever I feel so content 
no leaf is stirring inside this tent 

A silent symphony plays on in my head 
needling my heart like pliable soft thread    
In this little island before my house, 
I hear not a sound not even a mouse.
