WHEN SILENCE SPEAKS

WHEN SILENCE SPEAKS There’s a role for quiet contemplation No need for loud opinion or speeches More is said without prepared oration Sensing the depths that stillness reaches And understanding that silence teaches Confusion, if a peaceful state is broken Yet hesitation is no more than a token From loose lips, perhaps a secret leaks Words are just words if left unspoken One should listen when silence speaks
