In The Quiet Poem by Barry Middleton

In The Quiet

Rating: 5.0


the day's listening is done
only my thoughts are heard

the random musings of poetry
are fragments of yesterday

there is no tomorrow yet
but only moments of reflection

I remember the sounds
wind in the forest of my youth

storms and sibilance of rain
water rushing with the torrent

I remember the crackle of fire
to warm a winter night

sleep rises like a whispered fog
where softest dreams awake
