QUIET SOUNDS

A butterfly floats through the air,

Up the tree a squirrel climbs high.

A far off plane, hear it far away,

The meow of a cat, water in a stream.

The whisper in the ear of a loving girl,

Ticking of a clock, time of the world.

A flag slowly blowing in the breeze,

Leaves falling from a tree, that’s what I mean.

Slowly a fire burns, crackling of the wood,

Quiet sounds of peace, these things that are good.

  1. Thanks so much for following my blog–and introducing me to your own. =)

    I love the lyrical and calming images. And I really like how so much of your work involves flying, floating and, well . . . things that are “up”. I’m a big fan of heights and being up in the dreamy air. Thanks!
