Cosmic Silence

In cosmic silence
heaven's pathways open
past the sun's stillness
returns the dark edges
of night the strawberry
moon full and ripe

struggling to breathe
in time with the endless
pulse of the universe
alone in my thoughts
my inner drum beating

the planets singing
to each other in an
ultra-low frequency
sweet music of the spheres
playing in harmony

romantic songs from
Venus to earth on a hot
summer night burning
with fiery passion

I climb a mountain
in search of mystical songs
but, fall into a blue sea
in the depths of the kingdom
of whimsical dreams

gulping in the cool waters
of the evening tide listening
for ethereal melodies of whale songs
music to elevate the heart and soul

within your dreams there is
a wishful, twistful, liftful
wormhole where worlds connect
crafting poetry that sing

Happy Trails

Shay's from Muse #82

The prairies stretch out before me
there is silence in the wheat-fields
giant leafy trees are rare to see

the road goes for miles and miles
leading one to places in the mind
the journey full of trials and smiles

 galloping with the wind bareback
hooves pounding, hearts beating
riding together leaving our tracks

 exhausted we stop, taking in the sun
our wandering songs, drift in the air
some things in life you can't out-run
but, in this moment, beauty is everywhere

written for The Sunday Muse

Thank you to Carrie, Shay & Chrissa

The First Kledon

 Awakening from sacred dreams of night

what mysterious sound or spoken word

would break the mourning silence

would it be birdsong or rain-song

would I sing along in the magic

would it be fair to ask for joy

when all I feel is sadness

incorporating the word "fair"

The Greek word 'kledon' refers to the first sounds you hear coming from silence.

Does Solitude = Silence




















Silence a sudden hush , tranquility
i  walk upon the path of solitude
longing to hear higher decibels
everything around me grows still
noise fades, so  that  I  might hear
captivated in green blades of grass
eavesdropping on mother nature

author's note:  The path has a marker
that leads to Solitude represented
by this single stone. A time to be
alone with one's thoughts..

In Silence - I Hear


Pic personal collection

























In silence I  gaze  upon  still  waters
holding  an envelope of hopes and  dreams
blue  heron watches  from   marshy  quarters
the  clock  strikes three  all  is not  as  it seems

In silence, birds sing I am not  alone 
fresh  ashes  symbol  of my intentions
a journey quest  into  the  vast  unknown 
slow rhythmic breathing releasing tensions

In silence, I  blow  kisses  to  the  wind 
carrying  my  voice on  the wings of  change 
honoring  visions ,  mother  nature  grins
aligning  thoughts  a  time  to  rearrange

seven  messages, words drawn from  the  heart 
in silence I sense calmness, a fresh start
