Silence

There is life in silence, there is sound where no life is found

life is not silent, it is loud, it is a bus you ride home bound

to take you to your personal journey.

There are sounds in the littlest of things, inviting you to pay attention and to heed the sound of it’s silence. It is upon us to find our silent journey to take us home.

Devotion

You bring fresh snow to the ground

like cotton balls of renewed hope.

Untying my hands and my mind

letting me breathe again. Sending rain

in Spring like a reinforcement of

your undying love.

You give me Summer to let me know

you haven’t forgotten your promise

of eternal devotion.

Winter

Winter commands silence

it has a unique beauty

that demands attention

an untrodden ground

blanketed by virgin snow.

A sight to see

silence and purity

not even a single crow perched on the tree

silence is the sound

winter a time for rumination

a time of standing still.

Of consideration of retreat

of melding together.

Think of me

Think of me when your night has been too lonely, and the road you traveled has been rough.

Think of me when you want company, but also think of me when you need to be loved.

Reach for me when you want to be happy, loved and appreciated.
