Inaudible
there is a peace
deep-rooted
that echoes through
as if by some enchantment
its gentle breeze rolls
tumbling in slow motion
toward the lands
barely disturbing
skies of azure blue
wispy clouds serene
quiet and disarming
suspended in mid air
midstream as if
to hold back time
barely a whisper
disturbing the enchantment
of a midsummer afternoon

Inaudible
If a scream is left inaudibly, upon a sinking heart of confusion,
Was it to the bearer truly a scream? Or only an illusion?
If my eyes are open wide, and peeking bove' the mask,
Do others see a smiling grin, are 'smile lines' up to

Visually Inaudible
LOOK!!!!
LISTEN!!!
were the words my mind displayed.
As you passed by talking on your cellphone, today.
LOOKING & LISTENING,
I questioned internally my thoughts,
thinking, without speaking,

would not shut!!!!
LOOKING & LISTENING,
Ooooo Weeeeee,
how can this be????
one woman can possess,
an abundance of beauty,
finesse,
grace, class, & style,
with an infectious voice,
and beautiful smile.
LOOKING,
Amazed, in sheer disbelief.
Only to be disappointed,
LISTENING,

When spoken words shall finally melt
into inaudible, rhythmic beats,
ceasing to be conceptual speech,
we shall then truly understand,

An Inaudible Encounter
I was minding my own business
When I overheard a conversation

Got me so caught up in the mute dialogue
