Stilled



When you have nothing more to say,

Just walk the beach

With the sun behind the dunes,

No one in sight for miles,

And the tide coming in,


This clean, rough music

You will hear

All the long drive home,

And hear it still

All the next night through


In your own bed,

And hear it still

In the bright quiet of the woods

Awaiting snow, and, still,

You will have nothing more to say.






Out of repose the truth springs. — Patrick Kavanaugh
