The Sound Of Silence Tanka.

Goldfinch60



Is it ever heard,

A sound that’s so wonderful,

The sound of silence,

Where thoughts come into our mind

Bringing peace, love joy and hope.

      Yes, we could do a silent poem - no words in it. How many verses will it have? As many or few as we choose. heehee.

                Like rests in a musical composition, full of meaning and part of what can be heard!

                • Goldfinch60

                  So very, very true Rik, those rests are so meaningful.
