The Sweet Music of Silence
The years passed
and the sweet music
of silence
penetrates
our words, our deeds
We watched the notes as they
travelled to our
in our hearts
Now silence
has overcome sound
Does it mean that
we are poorer for the experience?
No!
The sounds of instruments well played
"thrusts the fingernail into the heart"
But without silence
how can we learn to appreciate sound?
