When silence speaks

We listen to the sound of our heartbeat something we take for granted we also take for granted when the sky is calm and empty when branches stiffen and don't move all animals become chatterless just as the eclipse came even the temperature went cold everything bowed it's head and rested for a minute when silence speaks God listens
