Best Quietness Poems

The gift of quietness, sometimes ignored,
   may go unclaimed throughout our busy day.
   Unless that time of stillness is embraced,
we'll miss our joy to share in the reward.

The gift of quietness- its silent song-
   can play to calm our...

I liked to be quiet,
In a white ferry, between Brittany and England,
Quietness is a precious diamond
To offer to a new girl, or a cat,
I like to be quiet, everywhere,
In a Syrian garden, when the sun freeze the time,
I like stillness of grass in the city,
Il...

One of the keys to happiness is mental quietness
The splendor of a full moon hung in the darkness
Orchards of lovely colors and textures, readiness.
Delightful rapt echoes of a vivacious life sweetness

in quietness divine
   the xanthous zephyr balm
      a citrusy ascent
         to sip on Summer’s tea
            a lovely day is...

this quietness i have presently
it's not a form of deafness
an absence of sound all around
everything quiet not a sound
silence a hum no beat of a drum
no bumps or squeaks no vibrations
stillness unmoved music ungrooved
this nothingness created by sound
it's lights darkness and scentless air
it's reaching to...

Brave and noble knight
Afraid to admit defeat
Lonely silent death...

God is unseen, 
Air cannot be seen either, 
Walk blindly through the darkness of the night. 
Seeing nothing in sight. 
Quietness is passed by where loudness is recognized every time. 
Only if quietness was seen? 
Where would the quietness take you? 
To places you have...

At dawn all is discreet,
All roads are ready quiet,
All the streets are silent,
Quietness reigns universally.

Birds in the bush are benumbed.
Various sounds transcend the land, 
As the light grows, the day wakes up,
The sun will build to sting and stump.

Sparrows are now singing in trees.
Pedestrians are...

Dawn peeks and kisses the morning sun
clouds hang suspended from the heaven's
wind takes a breath and gently blows
sunlight dances creating silhouettes 
as shadows slowly meander by
emerald leaves covered with cool mist
awaken to the amber rays
high tide with its foaming jealousy
swoops across the weeping shores
pounding waves...

A long peacefulness,
May signal a sudden break,
Of open ire freak....

Sometimes we observe a great sense
of negativity arise,
feel pressure in mind, so intense;

Try to believe life with no love;
baffled, demoralized kind of 
pulling down our proven mindset
feel stunned, visualize false threat.

But, surrender needs no defense
to HIM, despair vanishes; wise
thoughts appear, life's trueness commence.

Practise silence taking...

Blessed Quietness…  God Brought To My Soul!

It’s blessed quietness that God 
brought to my soul.
His blessed peace and love 
has made me whole!

It was everlasting love, that
 I and God were “acquainted.”
Now a new life in my heart has
 been “freshly painted.”

It was his...

Net like fog covers crevices
Encroaches upon daylight
Delayed light waits to break horizon
Ending fog's gripping might

In the fog there is this sense of
Solitude entertained
As crickets chatter to their neighbor
And roosters' crows remain

A sense of peace settles and feeds
The  spirit  is  nourished. 
Quietness deepens...

All by myself again; alone with my thoughts that are dancing forward and 
backwards in my mind of things and events of the past-mistakes I have made; 
regrets, decisions favorable; unfavorable; joys, sorrows, pains, and hurts-
wondering how my life might have been different If.......................

Oh! What...

Fall, fenced lane, warm sun, 
leaves rain except for one. 

Gnarly tree stretch out limb 
reaching free, soften dim.  

Somber swing hangs alone, 
wish children bring, grace shown.
