What is silence?
Silence

Silence
An elusive thing
How does one describe silence?
A beautiful thing
It sings
More powerful than words

Silence speaks more,
Than a thousand words
The silence
Of the eye of the storm
A calm,
Before the tempest is born

Night’s silence,
The birds sleep,
Leaving all the silence,
That one can reap,
Peaceful, in balance

Silence is all that one can reap,
From silent words to deep sleep,
Silence is beautiful,
Silence is deep,
Silence is the one thing,
That can make the world weep,

Silence crosses borders,
Into lands unknown,
Silence leads the sound,
Lo! The future is known!
