When silence sleeps,
exhausted
in the dead of night,
then watchers
turn their heads,
and night sounds
come to life.
Not heard before
while silence watched,
the murmur of the city,
the whisper of a garden,
a lover’s breath,
is heard the louder
that she sleeps,
till droning
in the morning light,
she raises sleepy arms,
and sweeps away the noise
before the children wake.
Silence Sleeps
