No Sound Without Silence

There is a voice deeply engraved
Within us,
A voice that breathes along life
And touches the core of creation
It never shouts through speakers
It never speaks up with words
It only shows it's presence
Through the heartbeat of this universe
And through the silent smile of a heart
It shows its presence in the smoky mountains
Where life meets the highest peak of silence
It reminds us of the reality and beauty
The utmost truth of life and it's creativity
That there is no existence of sound
Without the silent presence of silence...

this is very profound and well written. it made me think that we should not take sound for granted without appreciating the importance of silence. i love how you use images of sublime nature as a place where we discover truths about the transcendence of silence. great job!
