Silence is snow falling outside your door
Turning the world into seamless white
Covering up all things ugly and impure
Quietly caressing the earth through the night
Silence is a mime telling stories without words
Using only features on his face recorded
He's understood perfectly though his voice isn't heard
By all that see him he's greatly adored
Silence is a window through which one can look
Seeing wondrous things, but not hearing a sound
Silence is also realized in an interesting book
Where exciting stories can always be found
Silence is sitting and thinking your thoughts
No one can know whether they're evil or good
But thoughts make up what your life has wrought
In your silent thoughts, try to think good

Silence in life can be very valuable on many occasions and it can be so special at times.

Thank you for reading and commenting.
BRIAN HERE (on Lockdown !) Good Afternoon JUBSHAW - Welcome to MPS it is very intersting & interactive site which function s by reading (and commenting) on each others Poems. Thanks for your first poem - Well penned with a consistent Rhythm & Rhyme Pattern (abab cdcd etc) very recitable ! My Wife - Angela is Spanish and we have a Mantra *Silencio es d*Oro* implying that *Silence* is something of great value. Prior to Lockdown we lived in an increasingly cacophonous World ! The streets are a little quieter now and allow Natures *Sound of Silence* to filter through. I like your descripters : Snow - Mime - View through a closed Window - Meditation ! I wouls add Desert & High Hills & Arable Farmland ! Homes are seldom silent now with Radio - TV and now ALEXA ! We are too young (36 & 31) to remember the pre-electronic age and even Shops are now filled with MUSAK. Thanks for sharing
Shalom ~ Brian & Angela & Smokey
