Gateway of Silence.

A gateway through which so very few pass,
Silence first stills,
then opens new vistas.

Busy minds tire
but quiet revives, alas
calm cannot speak if it feels resistance.

Noiseless voices croon repose to still minds,
so fall dumb.

Allow for hushed times, refine
the peace silence sings
which heals, and rightly
we need
soundless places quiet heightens.

Bliss of tranquillity waits, so give place
to its resounding.

True gold of silence
once accepted,
will transform worry's waste
and show this way to live
as being wise.

Karin Anderson
Words of wisdom so skillfully written with the first line 'A gateway through which so very few pass' being a perfect introduction to peace and the gold of silence. And peace does heal and so many physical ailments are caused by the huge stress in society today. It is beautiful to look at the clouds and mountains in your picture above.

The whole Universe looks to be silent beauty and does not catch the eye of many for relaxation! But that is the gate way of silence that can take all to peace and joy to overcome the owes of the world! Your gateway of silence reminds that!

This is an extremely relaxing verse to read not aloud. A gateway to relaxation. Now that takes some doing...

Linda Ori
Ah, yes - silence is truly golden. If we are never still, then we never hear the universe and never know the gifts it offers us. This is a blissful reminder to just slow down and take time to smell the roses, and really see all that is here for the seeing. Lovely!
