Best Sound Poems

a gentle breeze
   tinkling wind chimes
   her voice

   reflected
   within her eyes
   the sky

   sunlight gleams 
   upon the stream 
   her flowing hair

   rose petals

Another Soul is in a Storm.
 A choice was made for her unborn.
The Haunting Nightmares linger on.
 Relentless blame to overcome.
There is no Birthday not Today.
 Or ever be to celebrate.
No Gift wrap Presents to enjoy.
 No Birthday Cake, Candles, or Toys.
Her heart is Crying...

Do you know why silence is so loud?
Have you ever heard a sound so loud
As silence?

I speak the words my mouth can’t say
With more than just my lips
With much more than my tongue
Will you read my hands and words?
Will you wait till my mouth said
What...

There Will Never Be Enough Time

There will never be enough time to hear unique
music of nature's songs in its birds, its insects,
in songs of the wind, or the sounds of the sea.
Or how earth breathes and is alive through its
caves and caverns, through its crystal...

Your mind's in knots,
as stress plagues thoughts.
On hope you cling,
to bloom like Spring.

Its fine my dear,
nerves can cause fear.
Don't be so scared,
gifts must be shared.

Your smile is cute,
when you are mute.
No need to hide.
I'm by your side.

Let the world hear,
your tone so clear.
Your will is...

I decorate a grotto for you, Mama
where orchids and holy images
embellish this special place and day,
that saintly icons guard you there
as if they beg me to be released
from years of guilty devotion…
Yet I polish their laced clothes;
then end the night waiting
for wind chimes to knell,’...

And so it is…
When the trees don’t speak, barely a whisper in the wind,
Wet petals stuck motionless to the ground as if pinned
When there is no language to read in the sky,
Even with all the clouds passing by

And so it is…
When a bird must show...

If you could paint a picture of silence
What color would it be?

Would you use a brush to paint the fog
in shades of gray, a touch of brown 
to hush the season from all sound? 

Would eaves be dripping to the ground
while windows weep with quiet...

Is there a way you can show me your silence?
This world is deafening to me 
Can I find the words that I'm seeking..

Dream of a quiet place with only you speaking
Teach me to hear with my other senses
draw down all these distorted fences  ...

.    The sound of
   Stilettos         coming   home. 
  The echo                   ...

Please speak to me my lovely friend
With leaves stirred softly by the wind

Under enchanted autumn sky
Where your susurrate sounds drift by.

Sing soft melodies in choir
As leaves glow as if on fire.

I feel your abject dying pain 
When wet and cold from chilling rain.

I remember spring...

This river of melody plays in my soul,
When I awake, I feel emerged in it whole.

In the calm of night, when I'm all alone,
It raises me with every euphoric tone.

But lately my song I have failed to hear,
No longer its sweetness caressing my ear.

I plead...

Furious wind from the north hisses louder,
banging against the gaped mouth of  a sky, drenched…
 Haggard, the night wheezes with quack
 of birds waylaid; a time of  unruly rainfall
crashing once more: and  the moon grows bald,
 groaning a jumble of cracked acoustics:
On...

I've somehow pondered about the 
   rush of air
of how I could be lulled on billows, and  
   yet, 
its notes upon my flesh eludes me--
as if in midnight trailing, weeping in refrains
this cadence glides beyond

Thundering tanks, missiles, bombs
     invade the world with fire's alarms

   Far beneath their horrific rounds
     beats the heart of humanity
       ~ infinitesimal sound...
