Silence isd golden

Silence is golden.

Silence is a serene compensation
A quiet for nervous disposition
It’s no hurried move of aggravation
Library’s quiet for read’s condition

No louder than a sweet feather’s falling
Or a breeze whispering a confession
More, it’s a vacuum of echo’s calling
The pacifist whose shout lacks aggression

Live to a quiet life’s stability
Not even a kite is lift’s enjoyment
No sound of scream’s or ’s agility
Not a tap of a finger’s employment

Should I live this way with silence around
I would just sit and amplify the sound!

Sometime silence is the best company!

Right now I hear a bird calling for its mate outside, my printer is soflly humming.

So, as Mrs. Joe says, silence does have sounds.

Yes, Ann. I don't think one can have complete silence and too much silence can drive as person mad. It would allow too much introspection and self-examination. Thank you for your comment.

I remember that song, the Tremeloes sang it. Great song and that's a lovely poem Ron

Ah, Maudie...That was a great song (still is!)And it's only one in a length of time that such a song comes along. Thank you for your comment on this poem...
