Devotional Poetry

Silence

1
Silence Whispers

Silence whispers to my soul,
unobtrusively its tones
recall my mind to my goal,
when the scriptures I intone.

Silence echoes in my mind,
speaks to me in shades of light,
about my faith in my kind,
about my concept of right.

Silence is the secret key,
that unlocks the door of self,
that reveals the secret me,
locked in the prison of self.

Whispers echo through my mind,
that intone matter's violence,
echoes running through my mind,
that the sacred scriptures silence.

Silence

Silence
surrounds my mind,
a warm blanket in the cold moonlight.

Intoning
the rays of dawn,
silence awakens me from sleep.

Echoing
the voice of God
silence speaks to my soul.

Moment of Silence

We pray in silence
our thoughts ascending
into infinity.

We pray in silence
our thought intoning
individual encounters
with reality.

We pray in silence
separated by concepts of divinity.

4
The Key

Silence is the key
to comprehending the fragrance
of spiritual reality.

Peace Is Not
Accompanied By Silence

Vibrations
flow across the landscape of creation,
inscribing rhyme and rhythm
into the naked flesh of being.

Retreating
to the far corners of eternity,
silence flees the intonations
of spirituality.

Meditation on Silence

The hue of silence
Paints reality's rainbow
Unites religions

The tones of silence
Wafts across the noisy mind
Brings tranquility

The taste of silence
Flavors immortality
The savor of love

The touch of silence
Embraces divinity
Forgiveness wisdom

The scents of silence
Penetrates the heart of faith
Happiness tripled

7
In Silence

In silence my soul speaks
overcoming t he voice of insistent self
and intoning love songs of the spirit.
