Silence....

Some silence is'nt golden

Of this there is no doubt
The world filled with a childs laugh
Is what love is all about

If you listen to the silence

You will plainly see
Not much inspiration comes
From the void that there shall be

Listen instead to a playgrounds sound

The laughter shouts and fun
This will surely warm your heart
Just as warming as a noon day sun

Remembering the sounds of youth

Whispering they seem to say
But first a smile invades your heart
As they beg to come and play

So your mind goes out to play

And leaves you sitting there
Remembering the love and fun
These times indeed are truly rare

So silence is'nt golden

This fact I'm certain of
If your world is void of laughter
You can not feel all the love.
