Silence


Silence in my heart and love ripens

Slow and sweet like mangoes in summer noon
A solitary pine waiting, heart spread like branches

In the quiet moments collecting whispers of past
kissing each word rippling to quivering smiles

In the foggy winter night drawing close this blanket
Of fragrant memories and healing warmth

Silent night and my lips are a quiet lake
moon dips its arms in my quiet waters

My quick silver silently waiting your quick silver
In changing seasons and days and nights

Silence in my heart...and love ripens
