Silence

Was a priceless

Gift

A time to think

To be

Without noise.

Words quieted

Voices not audible

Come from somewhere

So much deeper

Powerful lessons

Learned

When silence

Speaks.

Silence was a

Priceless gift

The drowning out

Of noise

The quiet

Before the

Storm

The silence

That spoke more

Deeply

Than words ever

Could.

Silence was a gift

Solitude amidst

Noise

Quiet amidst

The screaming

As days move by.
