Silent Trance

blissfully bubbling and troubling

September’s First Week Prompt of Lifeline — Silence

silence can teach us to be motionless it makes me rest a while, yet I find it hard to stay still

my mind travels to different places where I find myself lost in translation words and images that compete with silence not a thrill

until all the commotion settles down like when waves comingle from two sides turning into one wave on the shore then I become more surefooted and freer taking the plunge

silence is beautiful you become aware that something deep is happening not knowing what it is at the moment closing my eyes will sometimes bring faces of others I do not know, a psychic ability once told me cannot expunge

just like too much rest makes rust too much silence brings on ghosts of the past and nervous energy

some peace and quiet is needed but silence can feel like being alone for too long quite a disparity

a good reason why music was created because it keeps silence at bay delivering joy which often compels us to sing and dance

after a long, loud day, silence can be a treasure filling the moments with gold turning down the volume a silent trance

silence breaches the noise putting it in a vice to contain its hold on us we can swim through the currents of thought and images, working out our shopping list, or managing our budgets, and anything that often takes us away from just being still

we have to wade through our troubles and let the silence in the moment or our day heal us, helping us to forget the din of struggles, keeping us in the moment when silence wraps its arms around us favoring the day, fortifying the walls that may be crumbling, and sits us down to the music of our hearts a definite thrill.
