Unspoken

Try as I might

No words come

As all I hear is the crackle and hum

Of flames licking wood

Drawn by cooler air

Skywards

Pleasant just to rest here

Inside silence

Talk is cheap

Especially when it falls on deaf ears

And the greatest majesty

That I ever found

Revealed itself

In moments unspoken

Mouth struck mute

By the awesome beauty of a sunset

Or the unspoken poetry

Of glistening rain drop on leaf

So I think

At least for a while

It will be best

To leave words behind

As I draw comfort within my being

From the most profound beauties

That here surround my soul

Remaining

Unspoken
