silence beckons me

Silence beckons me

once again

 into her embrace

 her warm caressing of my being

her gentle nudges to not think beyond

of what is as of now

 no pondering, no lamenting

and no worrying

its all a waste of today

and the minutes of being in the present

Lets leave it to what’s to happen

for soon tomorrow will be here…

and I will know of what to do then.

 Like my very best friend she holds me close

while I hear my breath against her chest

and feel the thudding of my heart…

 she seeks me out of the mundane chores of the day

and takes me to be in the garden to inhale

the fresh fragrances of the plentiful blossoms that sit upon the stems…

she lends me her ears while I hear

the songs of the birds I adore…

the magpie robins and the tiny sunbirds…

its as though I am been held by the  Divine Unknown.

The grass has got greener  in the last few days

and the golden gaze of the sun seem less intense now…

 in this silence

I can hear the sea too

as her waves come to kiss the shores

 Creating that magical ‘shor’

An orchestra is being conducted

 I can feel the music reverberating in my heart…

 The cicadas, uninvited,

Never give way to the last notes of this symphony…

Silence with her silent steps melts into the dusky evening…

 the soothing warm soundlessness bids me adieu
