LINES OF THOUGHT © 2016

In a state of pause,

The note rests, calm and sincere.

In its silence, there’s a lesson,

A deep echo, a gentle song.

Wisdom does not rush,

It knows that time is what addresses

Each chord, every sound that will come,

In the right rhythm, where peace will be found.

To wait is to hear what is not said,

It is in the void to find what makes us happy.

In a state of pause, without rush or tension,

The note becomes, in itself, pure contemplation.
