where geese watch with hawk like eyes of my presence near their young,
I watch the morning sunshine sparkle on their watered backs.
There''s a crow or 3 in the sky..
a fading chorus of wisdom as they follow their chosen path.
Still the tales of where they have been remain close to my ears..
accompanying the laughter of the kookaburra.
Is he perched there in the old gum,laughing at me ...
for maybe he has heard my echoing voice..
sounding out and coming back untouched by others ears.
So this leads to my silence...
a place and state of mind,body and soul..
where I will sound out by voice for humans no more.
Only words written will come from me.
Only will ~the great spirit~ hear the dance of my heart....
but never will I sing loud the song of unwanted words for a heart that beats with an ignorant drum
Here in silence..
I watch with hawk like eyes,scanning the horizon...
~~~ guarding my silence ~~~

By this sheet of blue green glass...
where geese watch with hawk like eyes of my presence near their young,
I watch the morning sunshine sparkle on their watered backs.
There''s a crow or 3 in the sky..
a fading chorus of wisdom as they follow their chosen path.
Still the tales of where they have been remain close to my ears..
accompanying the laughter of the kookaburra.
Is he perched there in the old gum,laughing at me ...
for maybe he has heard my echoing voice..
sounding out and coming back untouched by others ears.
So this leads to my silence...
a place and state of mind,body and soul..
where I will sound out by voice for humans no more.
Only words written will come from me.
Only will ~the great spirit~ hear the dance of my heart....
but never will I sing loud the song of unwanted words for a heart that beats with an ignorant drum
Here in silence..
I watch with hawk like eyes,scanning the horizon...
~~~ guarding my silence ~~~

When I read your words...I see what you see. I hear what you hear. Always you leave me with a warmth in my soul. Beautiful poem.....from the most beautiful person I have ever know.

I will keep all your roses fresh and safe till you return.

Me

Dear sharon,
How wise you are young friend
There is a time to dance, a time to sing,
A time under the sun for eveything,
A time to live a time to die,
A time to laugh, a time to sigh,
And yes, dear one, a time to cry.
But remember there is also a time to be silent
That time is here for thee!
Warm love deeply
lovingcritters
Connie Sue
