IT IS A BEAUTEOUS EVENING, CALM AND FREE
It is a beauteous evening, calm and free;
The holy time is quiet as a Nun
Breathless and adoration; the broad sun
Is sinking down in his tranquility;
The gentleness of heaven broods o'er the Sea;
Listen! the mighty being is awake,
And doth with his eternal motion make
A sound like thunder--everlastingly.
Dear Child! dear Girl! that walkest with me here,
If thous appear untouched by solemn thought,
Thy nature is not therefore less divine;
Thou liest in Abraham's bosom all the year,
And worship'st at the Temple's inner shrine,
God being with thee when we know it not.
William Wordsworth................

I don't think I am ever quiet. I my mouth ain't moving my mind is. If I don't have anything to think of I twiddle my hair.
A big dose of listening for me please!
Thank you so much for your warm message too!
I think today with all the ipods and other electronic gadgets that people seldom ever just enjoy silence. Thank you for reminding me to take some quiet moments.
Enjoy your weekend. Thank you for the poetry :)
Silence is a good thing...thanks for the reminder and the poetry and art!
