Listening for silence
Is like living with tinnitus.
The ears ringing resounding notes.
Chicks chirping for food.
Roosters crowing their warnings.
The chorus of frogs mating.
Cicadas rejoicing
In their summer release
From years of birthing
In their earth womb.
Released, they scream their tunes
Playing their tymbals for mates.
The sound of silence.
It is the eternal now of song.
It is creation.
