There are a multitude of reasons why I like to take
a walk before the sun appears…before the neighborhood’s awake.
One has to be the silence…out here walking totally on my own
Is the first place where I realized silence has a beauty all her own.
Every day of every year trees spend their life in solitude…silent sentries to us all…
from when buds spring onto their branches…until silent snowflakes fall.
Sharing silence with the trees…oh what silent beauty I have found…
from the silent ways their leaves change color…then cascade softly to the ground.
The moon, the stars and the planets share their silent beauty from up top…
The bunny rabbits, without a sound, share the beauty of their hop.
Silence allows me to think about what’s important…my family, my friends…my home…
In silence, if I’m lucky, I might find the words that form a poem.
Silence has a way of calming me, soothing my mind and making me feel whole…
Where is love created if not in the silence of my soul?
In the silence of the sun’s rays is where flowers learn to bloom….
The miracle of life begins in the silence of the womb.
I think about how my life began in silent beauty and I try to find a way….
to enjoy a little silent beauty…a little every day…
Yes, born in silent beauty…each day I try a little more to learn…
to embrace the silent beauty that surrounds me…
until to silent beauty I return.
