Matthan Atherton Poet Couplet

Sound

Listen to the sound
That is all around

The gentle chirp of the birds
Can put me at a loss of words

Nature's sound is all around
Shedding light that can not be found

Only heard with the ear
So close your eyes and do not fear

Listen to the gentle echo
And the sound will glow

For the stillness of sound
Even when we don't know it's abound

Can drown out reality
And open our eyes to see

That hidden beneath what we feel
Sound can heal

Ismael Nieves November 3, 2009 at 4:56 PM Yep! sounds can be so therapetic, like the sounds of the waves, especially crashing on the rocks. O' it relaxes the mind. Delightful poem.
