The Sounds of Quiet
Not silence.
Silence is clinical. Sterile.
Quiet as in calm and open.
The gentle sliding of a patio door.
The rustling of pages in a book slowly getting turned.
Birds chirping while a car meanders down a distant road.
Gentle good mornings and how'd you sleeps.
The clank of a breakfast spoon while the most whisper quiet breeze passes through the trees.
Crickets and cicadas talking to whomever will listen.
No schedule. No rush. No real plans.
Just the sounds of quiet.
