Today’s poem is hot off the press, I wrote it a few weeks ago. Wishing you a weekend filled with the joy found in the spaces between…
Silence
For a moment
Life pauses
And I feel into the space between heartbeats
Amid all the busyness of life
sits the gap
The in-between
The rest
The quiet between the notes of life's symphony
That make it a masterpiece
When the cacophony inside
Is deafening
The quiet is lost
The melody obscured
Harmony distorted
Fullness beyond capacity
renders all just noise
And so I breathe
Sensing into the unfathomable space between breathing in, and out
Between breathing out, and in
And I know that however discombobulating the din
Beyond, betwixt and between the noise
silence lovingly caresses
my willing ear
Fe Robinson, 2022
