Poem: The Music of Silence

Silence is not merely the absence of sound; it is a language of its own, speaking in whispers that words cannot capture. It holds the weight of anticipation before a storm, the quiet understanding between two souls, and the hush of dawn before the world awakens. Silence can be peaceful, comforting, or deafening in its intensity, revealing emotions that need no voice. Today’s poem explores the unspoken symphony of quiet moments, where meaning lingers in stillness.

The Music of Silence

There is music in the hush of dawn,
In golden light on dewdrop lawns.
A melody soft, yet bright and clear,
A silent tune the heart can hear.

The pages turn, the world stands still,
A whispered pause, a breath to fill.
Between each note, a space, a rest,
Where silence hums its song the best.

A lover’s glance, a knowing smile,
No words are needed to reconcile.
A lull between the waves so wide,
Where longing sways like a shifting tide.

Before the storm, the air holds tight,
A quiet drumbeat laced with might.
The thunder waits, the earth holds fast,
A hush before the skies are cast.

Silence sings in ways unknown,
In echoes deep and undertones.
Not emptiness, but something more,
A song of all that came before.

So listen close, embrace the sound,
Where quiet truths are softly found.
For in the hush, the still, the space,
Silence hums with quiet grace.
