Have you ever stopped and listened
To what you thought was silence?
If you have then you would know
It’s never really quiet.
A thousand voices sing a chorus
Of memories and dreams.
When all is still and quiet
These voices speak of passion,
Of hatred and of love.
They speak of fears, they speak of hope,
And everything between.
To hear them you need only listen
To what you thought was silence.

"In Between" by Brian T Brewster now available on Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble

My favorite sound is falling snow.
I could listen for hours if I didn't get cold. Beautiful poem.

This is reminiscent of the song, "The Sound of Silence." I prefer this poetic version as we can all relate to it.
