Stillness.
A little silence mothers the truth for those
who dare seek and embrace
the almost-heard for if not smothered
in distractive disturbance
stillness finds access to wisdom that lies
underneath sound and
emits learning more than before known.
Only to those who seek
the un-vocal recall notes of non-sonance
which compose balm
of core- healing by alchemy's halcyon
to reach heart and soul.

perfectly pitched in my most humble & receptive opinion ..
'stillness finds access to wisdom that lies underneath sound' .. x
I never knew there was so much in silence. Good write Fay!
So very true Fay, silence can take us into another world.

'the
un-vocal recall notes
of non-sonance
which compose balm
of core- healing'
brilliantly distilled, dear Fay
(these poem's message
rings so true
for oft
it's only once we've survived
to a time - beyond, aftermath
we gain the necessary, space
to realise, all that we've gleaned
as during the chaos and noise
of life
we're too busy, surviving
to heed our lessons in the moment
so yes,
like pauses in a conversation
we must allow ourselves
brief respites of stillness
to organise
what we've just received or learned
lest they go to waste)
