Sounds of Silence - Prose Poetry

"Sounds of Silence"

Oh, the sounds of silence!
how they behoove and awe me.

There are flaming blue eyes which speak
better than any eloquent vocalization
stammered from soft lips.

The sound of a baby girl's smile
when so peacefully sleeping in pink bliss.

The sound of a star going super nova
creating beauty for all to behold.

The sound of God's orchestra
filling my head with wonders.

The sound of an angel's wings
taking flight outside my window.

The fantastic sounds of silence
without hesitation,
consideration or cadence,
plays music to my heart,
like an arrested heart with a new start,
elated with a quickened pace of life.
I,
wordless,
say,
"Listen to the sounds of silence!"
