The Almost Heard.
A little silence mothers the truth for those
who dare seek and embrace
the almost-heard,
for if not smothered stillness finds access
to unique wisdom waiting
underneath sound
and begets new learning never yet known.
Only to those who hear voice of un-vocal
can notes of non-sonance
compose mind-sets
for thought to produce power of alchemy
as quietness needs inner
halcyon to reach
balm\'s core to then guide finders\' notions.
Sound of the almost-heard thrills a poet
as its silent symphony tunes
verses with the mysterious unknowable.
