Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

Silence is golden

Dying is a very dull and dreary affair,

Surround yourself with silence and avoid nightmare.

The sound of silence makes you live longer,

The sound of silence makes you much stronger.

 

In silence trees, grass and flowers grow,

In silence  sun,moon and stars round us go.

Noise and restlessness leads to an early grave,

For the sound of silence we must  relentlessly crave.

◄ "I'm going to have to put him down."

A sad and happy reunion ►

Couldn't agree more about the value of silence, and it isn't so easy to find it now. Was one of the few positive aspects of lockdown! poem.
