Lovely Silence

By Brandi Hill

Hear that

Nothing at all

Silence can be so relieving

Silence so sweet

So kind

Courteous yet wild

So vital and free

To have

To hold

To love

To keep

Silence so golden

Patient and mild

Crucial yet calm

And all the while

You drift away

So quiet

So relaxing

Nothing is as great

Such lovely silence

We must contemplate
