Can You Hear It


When you sit down and listen to the silence, can your hear it? A tiny fluttering of wings, the chitter chatter of squirrels? A turning page in a book, a door shutting closed? A single breath took, a buzz of a bee? When you sit down and listen to the silence, can you hear it? Well, I guess, if you did hear it, it's not really silent, and that's just it, the world is never still. It is never silent.
