You don't want to miss this.
It's so fantastic.
I'm all wrapped up in the magnificence of it.
I've been thinking about how I could best share it with you.
How you might interpret it just like I do.
I'm wondering if I can even force my experience on you.
I know that's not possible.
Yet I want you to appreciate as much as I do.
In any case, you really must listen.
This is important.
Are you ready?
Ok, take a nice deep breath.
Close your eyes.
Now listen.
Do you hear it?"
"Uh. No. I don't hear anything. Am I missing something?"
"Ecoutez.
Trust your ears.
The silence.
Do you hear the silence?
Do you feel the stillness?
Let it sink into your pores and create a relaxing space within"

Great poem! I love the idea that listening to the silence is what is important.
ReplyDelete'Blue and green should never be seen' was a mantra of my long-ago childhood. And yet they are lovely together in your work. I get the impression of being in a deep cave and finding my way out. Thank you.
