Silence Has a Blackness

There are times when silence has the loudest voice. ~Leroy Brownlow

I was raised in a house

that made more sounds

 than the voices that it held

 creeks in the night 

whistling windows

steps that whined louder

 than a child wanting more

old secrets walked the rooms

with colorful voices

that only faith and children

could truly see

silence has a blackness

darker than coal

but it always catches the light

brightly once truth has a chance to shine.

Hope is much like a cat in the Dark — you only know it's there by the reflection of its eyes — which means there is Light nearby. ~Terri Guillemets




Wishing everyone in "blog-land" a wonderful Halloween.  May you eat too much candy and hear the giggling of children all night.
