Listen to the silence

After a visit to see the Gorgeous Ones. 

I sit in silence.
Silence is good, 
good for ones soul.


Both girls are city dwellers.
Nights dreams are spent 
with sirens, planes, trains and automobiles.
The general buzz of city life.

Home for me 
though 
is the sound of silence. 

Sort of.

Listening carefully you can hear,
the chattering of sparrows, 
the calls of black cockies.
A rooster crowing in the distance
a neighbours dog barking.
Country sounds.


A busy honey-eater enjoying the red hot poker flowers



Silence

De-clutters the mind does silence.
I enjoy and need the serenity.


The natural bushland below the garden
peaceful and "silent" and ours to enjoy



But how I miss the calls of
 Nonna
 by the little Gorgeous Ones.
