To a POET, words speak their revelations...

The words SILENT and LISTEN bear the same letters. 

The initiation of SILENT by, S, connotes the call to Spirit, 

and the ending letter, T, calls to Truth... 

The initiation of LISTEN by, L, connotes the call to Love, 

and the ending letter, N, calls to Nurturance

And so be it known

The initiation, the final call 

Spirit ~ Truth 

Love ~ Nurturance. 

To a POET, words speak their revelations.

Silent Night Rhythm
the cadence of the night sky
fervent hush ablaze.

Beyond

I hear a voice beyond the words spoken
A voice speaking in the silence between each word read
The voice calls to my heart and the spirit is led
Beyond the walls that house us in the filled room
Beyond all color, line and form, beyond the breath
Beyond all present to a time that fills eternity
To a place vacant of need
To that place of silent being
To that place of silent being.


Rose Marie Raccioppi
