Silence for the Senses

SILENCE FOR THE SENSES
By Anna Sterling

Silence is a good smell
But it is only smelled by the best people
You take in its delicious aroma
Only to neglect it
The odor of noise smells better to you

Silence is unique
It is not pretty
Not ugly
Yet it is very charming
Your eyes do not understand it
But someday they will

The beauty of silence is you can't hear it
Unless you really take it in
And you can hear the vibrations of it
None

Silence is a soft feather
A cloud to sleep on
A pillow to dream on
Noise is hard and lumpy like stone

If you are hungry, feast on silence
It feeds the soul
It is food for thought
Taste it and you will never feel hunger again

I like the last two verses better than what comes before them which is very prosey - and a little flakey.
