Lying in stillness, and listening, I try
Catching the dewdrops song to the morning.
Soundless warmth falls from a brightening sky
Aglow with ethereal delight of the dawning.
Purring leaves sigh as a breeze rustles air.
Floating gossamer downwards, it catches
Shivering grasses, which mutely declare
Their delight as each resonance passes.
Rocks inaudibly stir, subtlely moving
To harpstrings of silence heralding day.
Motionless life welcomes refrains, approving
The message that, soundless, melodies play.
An earthwide Concerto of Love, unheard.
This music of silence needs not a word.
