Silence

...And Thumper in all his wisdom said,"If you don't have anything good to say, don't say nothing at all."...

If we could be reached by silence,
just what would we hear,
gentle rumblings of longing,
swift breezes of air?

Our hearts would be free
to hear as we would.
We'd feel our heart calling
and leave out the should.

No questions of can
for no words of doubt would reach us
and No words of cruelity
that hatred's voice could teach us.

So I give to you my silence,
deep and soothing warmth of the wordless.
I give to you your own virtue,
none to ever call you worthless.

My spirit will speak
far more than breaths of noise.
Let my love lift you
into fathomless joys.

Author's Note: Not Finis! Needs lots of work.
