The Voice of Silence
There’s nothing as sweet as the sound of silence.
Nothing is as deep as the valley of mute.
There’s nothing as fragrant as the aura of the wise one,
Whose tongue is silent as danger looms.
There’s nowhere as serene as this place that’s soundless
Or kisses so sweet as the ones from the voiceless.
A shadow of the noise, a glimpse out of madness.
A cool shaded place where my heart has found rest.
There’s nothing as soothing and calm as the voice of silence.
This thing that nurses my sanity to health,
And keeps my heart from being restless
No matter how crazy it is that life gets.
My heart soars in the bliss of the silence.
My soul marvels at this nothing’s tune.
This thing that takes away my madness,
And keeps me walking around feeing cool.
