Silence

Silence is golden, we can learn much from it.

"Be Silent, be still" 

Silence; hear the heartbeats of ones in need

Silence, find the lost

Silence, end our wars

Silence, end ignorance

Silence, hear cries

Silence, hear laughter’s

Silence, find new beginnings

 

To be silent is a powerful achievement

It holds millions of meanings to us all

Our world, our life, and everyone in it so precious

We must learn to be silent, listen to each other, and learn to read minds with no words

Understand what we all long for  

To start new plans, and new ways,

End fears, and questions with no answers that consume us all

Just imagine what this world would be if we knew how to truly read silence

It's louder than words

Lost feelings a soul who wander in the mist of life.

Interesting proposal but it's true that the silence in itself sends a strong message, and also the idea that instead of talking all the time about what's wrong with us to quit complaining and listen to the rest of the world and work together to solve the problems. Good piece and good thought =)

I agree this is very thoughtful, not preachy or nostalgic but softly asking "what IF we all were silent" I agree that when words are silent, silence screams

[Siren]

It is louder than words, occasionally deafening, sometimes we need to make quiet conversation to abate it

[Ahmad Cox]

So true and amazing message for the ages. I think a lot more people would be a lot more better off if they truly learned how to listen to each other instead of always trying to fight or prove their point. Beautiful poem. I really appreciated it.
