a low D whistle rings
and his melody drifts

forever on the wind

What's all this then? A care in the community project?

just a verse developing, bobjack
    I received a request to move this thread to the music side of the Forum. I asked the thread, and it said it feels quite comfortable down here on the "BS" side of the Forum and does not wish to be uprooted from its happy home. It says the BS side needs music sometimes, too. Jed Marum PM'd me and said that's OK with him.

All in the quiet moments,
High on the hill.

In the darkness - see the light!
In the silence hear the song!

sorry - that was me...

for some reason this reminds me of a verse I wrote a few years back based on the story in the Book of Samuel.

"Iam listening, here I am
Not with my ears - but with my heart
Call my name - I'll take your part
Here am I, Here am I!

wish I'd written it down - as I am only recalling fragments...

Traveling ever on...

a crow pecks up a jumbo crumb of bread
the king's dog toddles off back to it's filthy bed
and one star in the sky is blinking
twinkling

in the quiet
a heart can hear
the greater song of life
unremarked by ear

As there is no end or limit
To chaos, noise and demand
So, unlimited,
Is the quiet you may become.

The grave is the only guarantor of silence,
especially if nobody weeps over it.
For sure the fate worse than death,
is the death unmourned.

a person takes
Guest, guest to one side
and suggests he leaves
this to the adults
and goes back
to playing
with himself

In the quiet moment, up on the hill
I know a girl who gets her fill,
She's a blueberry picker,
She's a blueberry picker,
She's a blueberry picker,
But I love her anyhow!

and in the stillness
you pause to reflect
that this is the noisiest quiet you've ever heard

...but a broken silence
left alone
can mend itself
as good as new...

I found my thrill
On Blueberry Hill!

And if we are what we eat,
Why am I not tall and thin--------like the proverbial Twinkie.

And a person takes Micca
and tells him how badly he needs
    a life.

Ah but the sweet cream of the Twinkie
Brings a twinkle to my eye
A picnic long forgotten still holds
Memories of the thrill

The twinkie is the mendacity,
for forgetting to eat the substance before the creme.

in the quiet the voiceless listen
knowing that one day they will be free to speak

in the quiet the grasses murmur
whispering of hope to come
