STILLNESS

at the start of the day,

my world is so quiet,

soundless and soothing,

allowing me to focus

on the stillness inside,

slows my breath,

 so my being can

absorb

the simplicity of life,

attuned to the stillness,

 the house takes on

a different,

dimension when you have  to

rely

on sight and smell,

everything has a way

of slowing to a halt,

and breathe, if you will,

the simplicity

of time,

before the chaos

of the hearing

world,

drowns your soul,

deafness has

benefits

that no other

can relate,

the simplicity of stillness,

down deep

in

one’s soul.
