Your Silence Sings

"Silence can carry many different messages; it can be a powerful form of communication." Thomas Merton

Your silence sings in
emerald leaves glistening
through arching blue skies.

Apple trees groaning
anointing the sacred ground
with seeds of silence.

Close by rushes a
train; howling wind brushes my
face with your silence.
