Huge Silence

huge silence There is a huge silence within each of us, beckoning us back into itself. —attributed to Meister Eckhart it’s always there waiting to be noticed the fathomless well calling me inward into the heart of the heart I swim down deeper find silence’s support how it buoys how it thirsts, welcoming those who remember— held by the depth thankful, I bow

Excellent poetry here. Silence personified effectively. Cliche avoided as you convey silence discovered in a swim downward, "welcoming" - worthy of a "bow" of respect. Congratulations on a most thoughtful write. Brian

Wonderful. I wish I could express how fell, think after I read this. It’s one I’ll come back to over time. Well done.

Excellent! It might be a coincidence, though, that you wrote about something I don't have much of, where I currently live, Keep up the good work!
