Listen to the silence <br />for long enough <br />and it'll soon begin <br />telling you things <br /> <br />Listen to the wind blow <br />softly into the cavities of your ears <br />whispering its secrets for just you to know <br />it could bring joy or bring you to tears, but.. <br /> <br />Listen to the clocks ticking <br />singing a warning constant and true <br />you may pause to listen <br />but time does not <br /> <br />Listen as I ponder now <br />does living require most action or reflection? <br />I believe they are in an ever spinning yin yang <br />so live, act, take part in life to the fullest <br />but also take time to <br /> <br />Listen and reflect <br />when silence speaks<br /><br />Nika McGuin<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-silence-speaks-4/
