Silence Canopy

Silence inscribed on my ceiling

     canopy of unheard words.

     I listen and hear

     soft resonance in stillness.

I touch a lonely pebble

     hear the faint messages

     enveloped in tranquility

     hush of echoes

Total release woven

     in garment of peace,

     whispering when

     no one is there.

No reflections of my past

     disturb my hushed mind

     accepting my submission

     to peace in bucolic place

I float gracefully into world

     of unimpaired spirit,

     roadblocks to sight and sound

     are excised from periphery.

Release of calmness

     restoring my psyche

     hearkening to words

     that are unheard

     and soundless.

Silently, I release

     yesterday’s sorrow,

     enveloped in serenity

     cocooned in solitude

     subtle sighhhh!
