A SILENT GIFT

The silence today is strong
Brilliant colors shine from all around,
The air is full of wondrous creatures.
The silence allows me to see once again.

The silence today is strong
Laughter rolls out when I close my eyes,
Cherished voices of youth echo in my heart.
The silence allows me to hear once again.

The silence today is strong
I explore deep inside my mind,
Finding a light in a forest of lights.
The silence allows me to reach inside.

The silence today is strong
And I thank you for the gift,
I’m ready again to embrace the joys of youth.
The silence allows me to be here for you.
